Adams • University of Arkansas Transcription • Overview of Transcription • synthesized on a DNA template, catalyzed by DNAdependent RNA polymerase • ATP, GTP, CTP, and UTP are required, as is Mg2+ • no RNA primer is required • the RNA chain is synthesized in the 5’ -> 3’ direction; the nucleotide at the 5’ end of the chain retains its triphosphate (ppp) group • the DNA base sequence contains signals for initiation and termination of RNA synthesis; the enzyme binds to and moves along the DNA template in the 3’ -> 5’ direction • the DNA template is unchanged Transcription in Prokaryotes • E. coli RNA Polymerase: • molecular weight about ______________________ • • • • four different types of subunits: _____________________ the _____________ enzyme is 2’ the _____________ is 2’s the role of the s subunit is recognition of the ______________; the s subunit is released after ________________ • of the two DNA strands, the one that serves as the template for RNA synthesis is called the template strand or ____________ strand; the other is called the coding (or nontemplate) strand or _____________ strand • the __________ binds to and transcribes only the ___________ The Basics of Transcription Promoter Sequence • Simplest of organisms contain a lot of DNA that is __________________________ • RNA polymerase needs to know which strand is _____________strand, which part to _____________, and where first _____________ of gene to be transcribed is • _____________ - DNA sequence that provide direction for RNA polymerase Promoter Sequence Chain Initiation • First phase of transcription is _____________ • _____________begins when RNA polymerase binds to _____________and forms ________________ complex • After this, DNA unwinds at _____________ to form open complex, required for chain ____________ Initiation and Elongation in Transcription Chain Elongation • After strands separated, transcription _____________ of ~17 bp moves down the DNA sequence to be transcribed • RNA polymerase catalyzes formation of _____________bonds between the incorporated _____________ • Topoisomerases _____________ _____________ in front of & behind __________ bubble __________ Chain Elongation (Cont’d) Chain Termination • Two types of termination mechanisms: 1. intrinsic termination- controlled by specific sequences called _____________ _____________, characterized by two _____________ _____________ Chain Termination (Cont’d) 2.
