EKSPRESI GEN
PRIYAMBODO, M.Sc.
A SPECIFIC GENE SPECIFIES A POLYPEPTIDE
The DNA is transcribed into RNA, which is translated
into the polypeptide
Post-
transcriptional
modification
of eukaryotic
messenger
RNA
The template strand for one gene may be
the non-template strand for another gene
The Universality of the Code
• The genetic code was assumed to be universal, meaning
that each codon specifies the same amino acid in all
organisms, with a few exceptions.
Perbedaan Ekspresi Gen Prokariotik dan Eukariotik
• Inisiasi
– Pembentukan kompleks promoter tertutup
– Pembentukan kompleks promoter terbuka
– Penggabungan beberapa nukleotida awal
– Pelepasan sub unit sigma
• Elongasi
– Pemanjangan transkrip
• Terminasi
– Penghentian transkripsi
