This genome is of interest to synthetic biology because Craig Venter wants to use
this organism as the basis for a minimal organism for genetic engineering.
Venter’s group has removed roughly 101 genes and the organism is still viable,
the idea then is to patent the minimal set of genes required for life.

Circular Chromosome in E. coli
Most Prokaryotic DNA is circular. Gene are
located on both strands of the DNA. Genes
on the outside are transcribed clockwise
and those on the inside anticlockwise.
E. coli’s genome is 4,639,221 base pairs
Coding for 4472 genes, of which 4316
are genes that code for proteins.

Circular Chromosome in E. coli
88% of the E. coli genome codes for
proteins, the rest includes RNA coding,
promoter, terminators etc.
In contrast, the Human genome:
3,000,000,000 base pairs and
about 25,000 genes.
Only 2% of the Human genome codes
for proteins. The rest is……RNA regulatory
network? Human genes are also segmented
into Exon and Introns, with alternative splicing,
significantly increasing the actual number
of protein

RNA Polymerase Binds to Promoters
mRNA
Changes in the promoter sequence
can change the efficiency of RNA
polymerase binding to the DNA.
The promoter is therefore a site
which can be engineered.
http://mgl.scripps.edu/people/goodsell/pdb/pdb40/pdb40_1.html
Strong and Weak Promoters
The strength of a promote is one of the factors which
determines the rate of transcription.
Strong Promoter. The recA promoter is a strong promoter.
TTGATA -- 16 -- TATAAT
TTGACA -- 17 -- TATAAT
Most common Promoter
(Consensus sequence)
It differs from the averaged promoter sequence by one nucleotide and on base
pair in the spacer region.
Weak Promoter. The araBAD promoter is a weak promoter.
CTGACG -- 18 -- TACTGT
TTGACA -- 17 -- TATAAT
RNA Polymerase Stops at a
Terminator
Changes in the terminator sequence
can change the efficiency of RNA
polymerase stopping. If the gene is
part of an operon, terminators can
modulate relative expression levels of
the different genes in the operon.
The terminator is therefore a site
which can be engineered.
