Protein Synthesis: overview
One gene-one enzyme hypothesis (Beadle and Tatum)
One gene-one polypeptide (protein) hypothesis
Transcription: synthesis of RNA under the direction of DNA (mRNA)
Translation: actual synthesis of a polypeptide under the direction of mRNA

RNA polymerases3 RNA polymerase enzymes
RNA polymerase 1only transcribes rRNA genesmakes ribosomes
RNA polymerase 2transcribes genes into mRNA
RNA polymerase 3only transcribes tRNA genes
each has a specific promoter sequence it recognizes

Transcription: the process1.Initiation~
transcription factors mediate the binding of RNA polymerase to an initiation sequence (TATA box)
2.Elongation~ RNA polymerase continues unwinding DNA and adding nucleotides to the 3’ end
3.Termination~ RNA polymerase reaches terminator sequence
![Page 13: Chapter 17~ From Gene to Protein Protein Synthesis: overview One gene-one enzyme hypothesis (Beadle and Tatum) One gene-one polypeptide (protein) hypothesis.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649ea65503460f94ba9321/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Eukaryotic genes have junk!Eukaryotic genes are not continuous
exons = the real geneexpressed / coding DNA
introns = the junkinbetween sequence

exon = coding (expressed) sequence

intronscome out!
