MBG 1000 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Open Reading Frame, Aminoacyl-Trna, Stop Codon
Document Summary
Rna polymerase (the enzyme that makes rna from dna) it binds to the core promoter. Protein-coding region: speciies the amino acid sequence of the protein. Acivators and repressors are dna regulatory elements = nucleoide sequences: speciic to corresponding binding proteins. Bound by regulatory proteins that can either be: acivators: posiively impact transcripion, they acivate it, need to bind to the. Dna: repressors: inhibit transcripion, negaively impacts rna polymerase (enzyme), need to bind to the dna. There are speciic genes that need to be repressed (ex. the gene of your eye colour is repressed in your heart cells: acivators and repressors are proteins. 2: if there is no regulaion, diseases will occur. All ribosomes are synthesized in the nucleus. The cells spend of its energy making and exporing the ribosomes. Structure: consists of two parts; large and small subunits. Each subunit consists of proteins and ribosomal rna molecules: contains three sites to which trna molecules can bind.
