基因表达调控的基本原理
Basic Principles of Gene Expression Regulation
§2.1 Regulatory Elements

Gene expression is a multiple-level and very complicated process. Transcription initiation is a key point of controlling gene expression.
For example:

By switching genes off when they are not needed, cells can prevent resources from being wasted. There should be natural selection favoring the ability to switch genes on and off（基因开和关）.（alcohol ——ADH） Cancer（肿瘤） results from genes that do not turn off properly. Cancer cells have lost their ability to regulate mitosis, resulting in uncontrolled cell division.

The DNA sequence that RNA-pol can bind to and initiate the transcription，determine transcription direction, template and activity（决定转录方向、模 板和活性）. RNA polymerase binds to different promoters with different efficiency.

1.3 Type of gene expression a. Constitutive expression(组成性表达)
Some genes are essential and necessary for life, and therefore are continuously expressed(持续表达), such as those enzymes involved in TAC. These genes are called housekeeping genes(管家基因). Internal reference sample(内参)of RT-PCR： β -actin，GAPDH

Regulation of Gene Expression
General concept
Gene
expression is regulated. adapt to environmental change of gene expression generally
b. Induction（诱导）
and repression （阻遏）
The expression levels of some genes fluctuate （波动）in response to the external signals.
Some genes（Inducible gene，可诱导基因） demonstrate higher expression level once
can be positive or negative.

第一节 基因表达调控的基本概念
Basic concepts of Gene Expression Regulation
§1.1 Conceptsห้องสมุดไป่ตู้
Gene(基因): A DNA segment that contains the all genetic information required to encodes RNA and protein molecules. Genome(基因组): A complete set of genes of a given species. (22+XY+mtDNA) Gene expression(基因表达): A process of gene transcription and translation.
1.2 Specificity of gene expression

Temporal specificity (also called stage specificity): why in the infant not in the aged ones? (甲胎蛋白AFP） Spatial specificity (also called tissue specificity): why in liver not in brain? （白蛋白）

Response element CRE ERE GRE HSE SRE
b. Regulatory proteins
（1）For prokaryotic systems:
• Specificity factors alter the specificity of RNA polymerase for a given promoter or a set of promoters • Repressors bind to the operator and prevent the transcription, known as negative regulation.
