In the drawings below note and label all important elements(incl. consensus sequences) discussed in lectures and tutorialmanual and listed below.
a) Prokaryotic operon: promoter (-10 and -35 elements),operator, multiple structural genes (for example 3), start site oftranscription, start sites of translations, transcriptiontermination sequence
b) Prokaryotic mRNA (polycistronic): transcription start site,multiple ribosome binding sites (i.e. Shine-Dalgarno sequence in E.coli), multiple ORFs (including start and stop codons),transcription termination sequence
c)Eukaryotic gene: promoter (TATA box), consensus sequence CAAT,enhancer, transcription start site, exons, introns, translationstart site (i.e. start codon), stop codon, polyadenylationsequence
d) Eukaryotic mRNA: transcription start site, ORF (incl. startand stop codon), polyadenylation sequence, poly A tail, 5’ methylcap, 5’ and 3’ untranslated regions. (0.25 marks for each label; upto 7 marks)
