Control of Gene Expression(Learning Objectives)
• Explain the role of gene expression is differentiation of function of cells which leads to the emergence of different tissues, organs, and organ systems despite the fact that all cells have the same DNA.
• Recognize the difference between house-keeping genes and cell-specific genes, using the example of the pancreas and its cells
• Explain the role of gene duplications and transposition in generating families of genes that carry similar but not identical function, using the example of hemoglobin. Define the term pseudogene.
• Explain the advantage to humans to having members of the globin gene family differentially gene expression during the embryonic, fetal, and adult stages.
• Learn the five primary levels of control of gene expression by name, sub-cellular location, and mechanism: Chromatin re-modeling or packing, transcription factors, alternative splicing, micro-RNAs and RNA interference, and the post translational controls.
• Recognize the mechanisms and modifications that maximize the number of proteins that can be generated from a more limited number of human genes.

Control of Gene Expression(Outline)
• Same DNA … different cells• House-keeping genes and cell-specific genes• From a stem cell to progenitor cells and their daughters.
Example: Pancreatic cells• Duplications and transposition- gene families advantageous to organisms
Example: Globin genes (embryonic, fetal, and adult) • 5 primary levels of control
o Nuclear: chromatin remodeling (epigenetic factors), transcription, and post transcription
o Cytoplasmic: mRNA and protein synthesis, post-translational• Maximizing number of proteins produced from a fixed number of genes

expression• Gene expression changes over the life time of
individuals• Environmental factors can impact gene
expression by modifying the chromatin structure

Gene Expression
Cells express 3-5% of their genes
House-keeping genes- all the time
Genes turned on or off- internal and external signals
Genes turned on only in some cell types not others while others are permanently shut down
(Highly specialized nerves or muscle)

- Exocrine part releases digestive enzymes into ducts
- Endocrine part secretes polypeptide hormones directly into the bloodstream

Ancient Genomic Structural Events
- Transposition: a genomic eventcertain sequences jump about the genome
Transposon is a single jumping sequence
- Repeated DNA sequences and multiple copies of certain genes. (example; globin genes)

Hemoglobin
Adult hemoglobin has four globular polypeptide chains
- Two alpha (α) chains = 141 amino acids
- chromosome 16
- Two beta (β) chains = 146 amino acids
- chromosome 11

Pseudogenes have accumulated too many mutations and produce no functional proteins
They are transcribed but are not translated

Members of both the α and β families are expressed during the developmental stages: embryonic, fetal and/or adult
The embryonic and fetal hemoglobins have higher affinity for oxygen than do adult forms, ensuring transfer of oxygen from mother to developing fetus.

Globin Chain Switching
Subunits change in response to oxygen levels
Subunit makeup varies over lifetime- Embryo = Two epsilon (ε) + two zeta (ζ)
- Fetus = Two gamma (γ) + two alpha (α)
- Adult = Two beta (β) + two alpha (α)
- The adult type is about 99% of hemoglobins by four years of age
