eukaryotic gene expression
Main Stages
Translation
the use of mRNA to direct protein synthesis, and the subsequent post-translational processing of the protein molecule.
Elongation
Termination
Initiation
Transcription
the production of messenger RNA (mRNA) by the enzyme RNA polymerase, and the processing of the resulting mRNA molecule.
Promoter Region
gene regulation
Regulating the processing of RNA molecules, including alternative splicing to produce more than one protein product from a single gene
Regulating the stability of mRNA molecules
Regulating the rate of transcription
Regulating the rate of translation
RNA splicing
epigenetic inheritance
Changes that affect the traits of offspring without seriously changing the DNA
Histones
proteins that connect and help wind up DNA around it in coils.
