Document Summary
From fructose 6 bisphosphate is split by aldolase to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and. Hence glycolysis is ran twice in order to create two pyruvates. Creates a gradient between the inner membrane space. It moves from the inner membrane to the matrix. Transcription is directional (only one strand is copied) Transcription begins downstream of the promoter, but upstream of the coding region. Usually includes a tatta box, and has 15-17bp. Acetylation of histone tails promotes loose chromatin structure that permits transcription. Myod is a transcription factor that turns on. The factors that are activated should be euchromatin (open) Lac operon cyclic amp is created from atp. This binds to the cap, which helps move rna polymerase at a faster rate. An operon is a sequence is genes that have the ability to create proteins. Low glucose and high lactose create cyclic amp, which signal the on of the operon. From one gene, you can make completely different proteins.
