Chapter 15 I. Prokaryotic Gene Control A. Conserves Energy and Resources by 1. only activating proteins when necessary a. don’t make tryptophan if it can be absorbed from environment 2. only producing proteins when needed a. don’t need lactose digesting enzymes if no lactose is present B. control enzymes already in cell : posttranslation control 1. allosteric enzymes a. activated b. inhibited 2. feed back inhibition a. end product of anabolic path is the inhibitor 3. adjustment to short term changes C. control production of enzymes: transcription control 1. control transcription of genes a. repressors block promoters to stop transcription b. enhancers bind to promotor to speed transcription 2. slower/longer lasting effects: more stable environment D. E. Negative control 1. negative slows or stops function 2. feed back inhibition 3. repressors blocking transcription positive control 1. SPEEDS up production 2. just allowing production does not count!! 3. Enhancers bound to promoter 4. allosteric enhancers F. Operon model : clusters of functionally related genes controlled as a group (3 parts) 1. DNA code for the genes 2. promotor – stretch of DNA before genes a. attracts RNA polymerase b. needed to start transcription 3. operator – DNA sequence near promotor a. binding site for repressor protein G. Regulatory Genes : make repressors found up stream from operon they regulate H. trp Operon : trp = tryptophan amino acid 1. Repressible operon bcs it is normally active 2. genes make trp 3. low trp level in cell : operon active a. repressor is inactive b. promoter is open to RNA polymerase c. genes to make trp are copied 4. High trp level in cell : operon repressed a. trp repressor is allosteric 1. binding to trp activates repressor 2. active repressor binds to operator 3. blocks RNA polymerase 4. genes not transcribed I. Lac operon : lactose (galactose + glucose) 1. Inducible operon : usually off a. repressor is active unless lactose bound to it 2. genes make a. β-galactosidase cleaves lactose in 1/2 b. permiase membrane transport protein c. third gene unknown 3. presence of lactose: a. lactose binds to allosteric repressor i. inactivates repressor ii. Repressor releases operator iii. RNA polymerase copies all 3 genes http://biology-animations.blogspot.com/2007/11/lac-operon-animation.html J. Positive control of lac operon 1. lac operon also has positive control a. inducible = can be activated b. positive control = can be speeded up 2. If glucose is present E. coli prefer to use it a. lack of glucose causes E. coli to speed up use of lactose b. lack of glucose causes build up of cAMP (cyclic AMP) = signal molecule c. cAMP binds to regulatory protein CAP i. catabolite activator protein becomes active ii. CAP binds to start of promotor iii. Makes promotor more attractive to RNA polymerase iv. speeds up translation d. build up of glucose in cell causes lack of cAMP so CAP becomes inactivated https://smartsite.ucdavis.edu/access/content/user/00002950/bis10v/flashvideo/lac_positive.html Repressible operons a) repressor inactive w/o allosteric binding b) normally on c) usually anabolic Inducible operons a) repressor active unless bound b) normally off c) usually catabolic II. Eukaryotic Gene Control A. Gene expression regulated at many stages 1. Transcription control a. chromatin structure regulation b. transcription initiation control 2. Post-transcriptional control a. RNA processing b. mRNA degradation c. Translation initiation 3. Post-translational control a.allosteric P, b. P processing, c. P degradation B. Chromatin structure control Heterochromatin – Chromatin that remains tightly compacted even in interphase a. genes not transcribed 2. acetylation – a. acetyl group (-COCH3) bonded to histone b. loosens up chromatin winding c. promotes transcription 3. DNA methylation – a. –CH3 bonds to DNA blocking transcription b. methylated regions passed on to daughter cells (x - chromosome inactivation) 1. C. Initiation control 1. control elements : non-coding DNA upstream from promotor that bind transcription factor proteins a. distal control elements are far up-stream i. often act as enhancers b. proximal control elements : near promotor 2. transcription factors: proteins a. needed for transcription initiation b. general transcription factors (GTF) needed for all transcription of genes i. GTFs bind each other & RNA Polym. II to form initiation complex ii. Initiation complex binds to control elements near promotor: start transcription iii. One protein of the GTF will bind to a section of promotor called the TATA box. (fig 14.9) iv. General Transcription Factor complexes allow slow transcription of gene f. Specific Transcription Factors needed for rapid transcription of gene 3. Vocabulary in order to have a clue on 15.2 a. Things that are part of the DNA 1. control elements : binding site for transcription factors 2. Enhancers : distal (far) control elements, can be activated or repressed by transcription factor proteins 3. TATA box : section of the promoter’s code 4. promoter : just upstream from start of gene, where RNA polymerase binds to start transcription b. Things that are proteins 1. Transcription factor : regulatory protein binds control elements on a. general transcription factors allow transcription b. activators speed transcription c. repressors slow transcription 2. Mediator proteins : form link between regulatory proteins and DNA 4. Distal control elements = enhancers a. may be up or down stream b. each gene can have many enhancers i. each active under different conditions ii. Or active in different cell types iii. Each enhancer works with only one gene c. transcription factors called activator proteins bind to enhancer control elements i. fold DNA so that the activator protein/enhancer complex binds to initiation complex to speed up translation d. repressor transcription factors interfere with the activator transcription factors to slow transcription i. by binding to distal control elements and keeping activators out ii. By binding to activator proteins 5.coordination of functionally related genes a. related genes have same control element sequences b. bind same transcription factors c. environmental signal triggers TF and the bind to all the matching control elements in the genome d. activate all the related genes D. Post-translational Control 1. RNA processing a. alternative splicing b. poly A tail length c. cap designation 2. mRNA degradation a. specialized RNAs can degrade mRNA 3. Translation initiation control a. proteins bond to mRNA prevent ribosome binding
