Learning Guide: Molecular Genetics Gene Regulation Bill Activity #42 To Think About: How does gene regulation result in differential gene expression, leading to cell specialization? In what ways do a variety of intercellular and intracellular signal transmissions mediate gene expression? How does viral replication result in genetic variation, and how can viral infection introduce genetic variation into the hosts? How do interactions between external stimuli and regulated gene expression result in specialization of cells, tissues, and organs? 1st Interact: Take notes on Mr. Andersen’s Gene Regulation Video 2nd Read about/Review Gene Regulation: Use your class note handouts, text and video notes to answer the following questions in your BILL Ch. 18 Gene Regulation: Pgs. 351-366 Campbell’s Biology 9th edition Overview o Describe how gene regulation is like conducting an orchestra. Bacteria often respond to environmental change by regulating transcription o Explain why bacteria express only the genes whose products are needed by the cell. o List the three parts of an operon and explain the role of each one. o Distinguish between inducible and repressible operons. Use the trp and lac operons as examples. o Explain what CAP is and how it works. o Describe the relationship between glucose supply, cAMP, and CAP Eukaryotic gene expression is regulated at many stages o Even though all cells of an organism have the same genes, there is differential gene expression. Explain what this means. o List and explain the common central point of gene expression for all organisms o List and explain each of the following: Differential gene expression, regulation of chromatin, histone modifications, DNA methylation, epigenetic inheritance, o Describe how regulation of transcription initiation occurs. o Explain the organization of a typical eukaryotic gene. o Describe several mechanisms of post-transcriptional regulation. Noncoding RNAs play multiple roles in controlling gene expression. o Compare and contrast miRNAs and siRNAs o Describe the evolutionary significance of small ncRNAs Supplementary Resources: Click the links below for more information to help you learn more about this lesson.
