ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Eukaryotes and prokaryotes have different sequences upstream of ATG (start codon) Shine Dalgarno sequence Is the ribosome binding site Kozak sequence Is not ribosome binding site RBS is 5’ cap of mRNA Essential for translation initiation E.coli Human

  6. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Eukaryotes and prokaryotes have different mRNA transport for translation

  7. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 A molecule called transfer RNA (tRNA) recognizes the messenger RNA (mRNA) codon and adds the corresponding amino acid

  8. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Amino acid specific synthetase enzymes “charge” the tRNA with the corresponding amino acid.

  10. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Ribosome de-codes (translates) mRNA into a new protein using charged tRNA The ribosome is a composed of a large and small subunit, proteins and structural RNA called ribosomal RNA (rRNA) Ribosome moves along the mRNA, captures complementary tRNA, hold these in position, and covalently links amino acids together. Aminoacyl-tRNA Peptidyl-tRNA Exit

  11. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Ribosome produces protein in a 4 step process

  12. SMALL LARGE

  13. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 • How does this process all start? • Starts with binding of the initiator tRNA, which is always bound to Met, and binds START codon (AUG) • Eukaryote: • 5’ cap tells ribosome where to start searching for START • single, spliced, mRNA transcribed for each protein • Prokaryotes: • ribosome recognizes ribosome binding sequence (RBS)– Shine dalgarno sequence • ribosome can recognize multiple START sites in one mRNA molecule as long as RBS is • present • one mRNA protein can encode several different proteins

  14. Eukaryote

  15. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 How does this process all end? Ends with binding of the release factor binding to stop codon (UAG)

  16. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Ribosome is relatively conserved between eukaryotes and prokaryotes Eukaryote ribosome adds about 2 aa / s, prokaryote ribosome adds about 20 aa / s Multiple ribosomes can be bound to one mRNA - polyribosomes Initiation, translation and termination

  19. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Read the chapter 8 in your text book, Essential Cell Biology (3rd Edition) Questions to schoep@engineering.ucsb.edu, Rm 3114

  20. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Why is controlling gene expression important? All cell have the same DNA Eukaryotes: 25 000 genes – 5000 to 15000 expressed Prokaryotes: 4300 genes Some housekeeping genes are always produced How do we get different cells with different activities? Permanent and transient changes to gene expression such as Cellular differentiation (permanent) Cellular responses to stimuli (transient)

  21. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Permanent changes to gene expression: Propagation of condensed chromatin structure Positive feed back loop (eukaryotes)

  22. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Permanent changes to gene expression: DNA methylation (eukaryotes and prokaryotes) influences how regulatory proteins bind to DNA Pattern changed in fetal development affects cellular differentiation

  23. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Transient changes to gene expression: Changes to environmental stimuli Primary control is at the level of transcription ie. how much mRNA is produced Differences between eukaryotes and prokaryotes

  25. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Transient changes to gene expression: Pokaryotes have operons: multiple genes produce one mRNA transcript and are regulated together. Eukaryotes generally have individual regulated genes but regulation is more complex

  26. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Repressor and Activators: Repressors turn off genes, activators turn them on Activator and repressor control of the Lac Operonin bacteria (prokaryote) Controls genes for using different carbon sources E.coli use glucose before lactose Enzymes for glucoseuse are made constantly Enzymes for lactose use are made at very low levels in the presence of glucose When glucose runs out and lactose is present Lac Operonis “turned on” Lac operon encodes genes for lactose transport (lacY) and conversion (lacZ) to glucose and galactose, and lacA 27

  31. ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 ChE 170: Engineering Cell Biology – Control of gene expression, manipulating genes 11/03/11 Enhancers: Eukaryotes use activators and repressors as well. Activators bind to regions called enhancers Enhancers can bind to affect transcription from great distances In general: Activation depends on presence of multiple factors with act in combination Genes are often controlled by multiple sets of regulators ie. same gene can be expressed in response to different sets of signals However, a change in one transcription factor can cause profound changes in cell function
