What is gene expression?
• Biological processes, such as transcription, and in case of proteins, also translation, that yield a gene product.
• A gene is expressed when its biological product is present and active.
• Gene expression is regulated at multiple levels.

Definitions• Constitutively expressed genes:
– Genes that are actively transcribed (and translated) under all experimental conditions, at essentially all developmental stages, or in virtually all cells.
• Inducible genes:– Genes that are transcribed and translated at
higher levels in response to an inducing factor• Repressible genes:
– Genes whose transcription and translation decreases in response to a repressing signal

Definitions
• Housekeeping genes: – genes for enzymes of central metabolic
pathways (e.g. TCA cycle)– these genes are constitutively expressed– the level of gene expression may vary

Operons– a promoter plus a set of adjacent genes whose
gene products function together. – usually contain 2 –6 genes, (up to 20 genes)– these genes are transcribed as a polycistronic
transcript.– relatively common in prokaryotes– rare in eukaryotes

The lactose (lac) operon
• Contains several elements– lacZ gene = β-galactosidase– lacY gene = galactosidase permease– lacA gene = thiogalactoside transacetylase– lacI gene = lac repressor
– Pi = promoter for the lacI gene– P = promoter for lac-operon– O1 = main operator– O2 and O3 = secondary operator sites (pseudo-operators)
