Eukaryotic and prokaryotic gene structure
نویسندگان
چکیده
Genes consist of multiple sequence elements that together encode the functional product and regulate its expression. Despite their fundamental importance, there are few freely available diagrams of gene structure. Presented here are two figures that summarise the different structures found in eukaryotic and prokaryotic genes. Common gene structural elements are colour-coded by their function in regulation, transcription, or translation.

A New Reporter Gene Technology: Opportunities and Perspectives
The paper summarizes the current status of the reporter gene technology and their basics. Reporter gene technology is widely used to monitor cellular events associated with gene expression and signal transduction. Based upon the splicing of transcriptional control elements to a variety of reporter genes, it “reports” the effects of a cascade of signaling events on gene expression inside cells. ...
متن کاملStructure and evolution of prokaryotic and eukaryotic RNA polymerases: a model.
A comparative overview of the subunit taxonomy and sequences of eukaryotic and prokaryotic RNA polymerases indicates the presence of a core structure conserved between both sets of enzymes. The differentiation between prokaryotic and eukaryotic polymerases is ascribed to domains and subunits peripheral to the largely conserved central structure. Possible subunit and domain functions are outline...

Background and Objective: The aim of the present study was to express recombinant human interferon-gamma in Leishmania tarentolae. The Leishmania expression system represents the combination of easy handling known from bacterial expression systems with the potential of a eukaryotic protein expression, folding and modification system. The trypanosomatid protozoan host Leishmania tarent...
