Exon
Shuffling
3 types of exon shuffling
exon duplication = the duplication of one or
more exons within a gene (internal
duplication)
exon insertion = exchange of domains
between genes or insertions into a gene
exon deletion = the removal of a segment
from a gene.
Mosaic (or chimeric)
protein = a protein encoded
by a gene that contains
regions also found in other
genes. The existence of such
proteins provides evidence of
exon shuffling.

Blood
Clotting
Clotting - History
1863: Joseph Lister showed that
blood is a fluid inside an ox, and
undergoes clotting when put on a
test glass.

After the wound is healed…
Plasmin should only be activated when the wound is
healed. Plasmin is created from plasminogen by an
enzyme called plasminogen activator (TPA).

Heart attacks
If TPA is given 1h after a heart attack it
significantly increases the chance of
surviving.
(If you run out of TPA chewing aspirin will also do)

Prourokinase and TPA are very similar. They both
catalyze the same reaction (prourokinase only after it is
cleaved to urokinase). But, the difference is that TPA
interacts with fibrin and urokinase – does not.

Prourokinase and TPA – the domains
The difference is that TPA has another domain, the F1
domain (43 amino acids) that is missing in prourokinase.
F1 = fibronectine type 1 module.
F1 is responsible for the affinity of TPA to fibrin.

Much more complicated
In fact, there are other domains in the clotting system
that resemble each other. It looks like a big complicated
puzzle of domain shuffling.
AP = apple module; EG = epidermal growth-factor; F1 & F2 = fibronectin type-1 &
type-2; GA = g-carboxy-glutamate domain; KR = kringle
TPA acquired its exons from other genes…
There are also many computer programs that analyze a
given sequence, and search for homology in known
existing domains.

The class of an exon
GTTAGCCATTTGTT
Exon of class 0-0. Starts at the beginning of a
codon, and ends at the end of a codon.
The class of an exon
GTTAGCCATTTGTT
Exon of class 0-1. Starts at the beginning of a
codon, and ends between positions 1 and 2 of a
codon.
The class of an exon
GTTAGCCATTTGTT
Exon of class?
Exon of class 2-1. Starts between positions 2
and 3 of a codon and ends between positions 1
and 2 of a codon.
Symmetrical exons.
GTTAGCCATTTGTTT
Symmetrical exons are those that are multiples of
3 nucleotides?
(Otherwise, they are asymmetrical).
Tandem duplication of symmetrical exons
GTTAGCCATTTGTTT
GTTAGCCATTTGTGCCATTTGTTT
Tandem duplication of symmetrical exons will not
cause a frameshift mutation.
Deletion of symmetrical exons
GCGTTAGCCATTTGTTTATTT
Deletion of symmetrical exons will not cause a
frameshift mutation.
What about exons insertion?
GTTAGCCATTTGTTTACCGATTTCAC
Only symmetrical exons can be inserted without
causing a frameshift mutation.
What about exons insertion?
GGTACG
GTTAGCCATTTGTTTACCGATTTCAC
GTTAGCCATTTGTTTAGGTACGCCGATTTCAC
But not all symmetrical exons can enter. For
example, a 0-0 exon will cause a frameshift if
entered.
What about exons insertion?
GGTACG
GTTAGCCATTTGTTTACCGATTTCAC
GTTAGCCATTTGTTTAGGTACGCCGATTTCAC
0-0 exons can only be inserted in phase 0 introns
1-1 exons can only be inserted in phase 1 introns
2-2 exons can only be inserted in phase 2 introns
Prourokinase and TPA – exon classes
All recruited exons are of class 1-1. It might be a “frozen
accident”: if the first one was 1-1, all the rest should also
be 1-1…

and exon lost
Splicing
In splicing, introns are removed. There are signals in the
DNA (in the mRNA) that direct the excision of introns.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In fungi, the activities are distributed between two
proteins encoded by two unlinked intronless genes,
FAS1 and FAS2. FAS1 encodes 3 of the 8 activities (bketoacyl synthase, b-ketoacyl reductase, and acylcarrier protein). FAS2 encodes the rest of the five
enzymatic activities.
In animals, all functions are performed by one polypeptide,
fatty-acid synthase. The gene product has 8 modules,
including one that performs a dual function and another
whose function is unrelated to fatty-acid synthesis but may
determine the 3D structure of this protein.
