Ch 18 - Regulation of Gene Expression Overview: Conducting the Genetic Orchestra Prokaryotes and eukaryotes alter gene expression in response to their changing environment In multicellular eukaryotes, gene expression regulates development and is responsible for differences in cell types RNA molecules play many roles in regulating gene expression in eukaryotes Concept 18.1: Bacteria often respond to environmental change by regulating transcription metabolic control occurs on two levels cells can adjust the activity of enzymes already present feedback inhibition - presence of enzyme a shuts down synthesis of more enzyme a by inhibiting activity cells can regulate the expression of the genes encoding the enzymes Operons: The Basic Concept

Gene Expression Chapter 11 ? Differentiation yields a variety of cell types, each expressing a different combination of genes ? Different types of cells make different proteins because different combinations of genes are active in each type Muscle cell Pancreas cells Blood cells Fiure 11.2 Differentiated cells may retain all of their genetic potential Most differentiated cells retain a complete set of genes Root of carrot plant Root cells cultured in nutrient medium Cell division in culture Plantlet Adult Plant Single cell Figure 11.3 DNA packing in eukaryotic chromosomes helps regulate gene expression ? A chromosome contains DNA wound around clusters of histone proteins ? This beaded fiber is further wound and folded

Chapter 18 Regulation of Gene Expression Conducting the Genetic Orchestra Cells precisely regulate their gene expression. Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes must alter thaier patterns of gene expression in response to changes in the environment. Remember, each cell contains the same genetic information, but the liver cell and brain cell express very different proteins, etc. This chapter will look at how cells (bacteria, eukayotes, etc.) regulate expression of their genes. Point: in eukaryotes, the expression of a gene is often regulated at the level of transcription. Learn this. Point: disruptions in gene regulation can lead to cancer 18.1 Bacteria often respond to environmental change by regulating Transcription
