Document Summary
Bio230: lecture 2 - review & prokaryotic transcriptional regulation (sept. 12) Examples of how organisms express their genomes starting with prokaryotic organisms. Specific examples of how prokaryotic organisms regulate expression of genomes. All forms of life need to possess a genome. Genome encodes info to construct and maintain organism. But in this lecture mostly talking about genome expression from dna genomes. Extracting information requires process known as genome expression. Release of the biological info stored in genome requires expression. = entire repertoire of rna molecules present in a cell at a particular time. Different cell types have different patterns of rna expression. Ex: one prostate cancer cell similar transcriptome to another but different from renal cancer transcriptome. Each gene of organisms encoded in genome can be transcribed to produce rna molecule. Single-stranded and is complementary to one strand of dna. Next product of genome expression is . Break down sugars, produce energy, carry out transcription/translation.
