MCDB 427 Lecture Notes - Lecture 14: Antibody, Cytosol, Microinjection
Document Summary
In eukaryotes, almost every gene is interrupted with introns. This is a schematic of a typical eukaryotic gene. Enhancers are upstream (not shown) include parts that we throw away and parts we keep (exons) Notice that the transcribed mrna extends past the poly(a) site. Transcription and translation can happen at the same time. Getting rnap on and starting transcription was chapter 13. After you make it, you gotta do stuff to the mrna. Take home lesson: these events all happen inside the cytosol as the mrna is getting transcribed. (appens on a platform that"s mediated by rnap. Once we get to the mrna that"s made, starting at +(cid:883), the mrna transcript will. You know that there is usually a (cid:887)" utr. This has to start with an exon because you"re going to keep it. Doesn"t mean there isn"t introns within the (cid:887)" utr. )ntrons and exons don"t have to be just in the coding region.
