21 RNA Eukaryotic Gene Expression - Chromatin Chromatin is the Complex of DNA, Protein, and RNA Comprising Eukaryotic Chromosomes For RNA Polymerase to Perform Transcription, Access Must Be Gained to the DNA Increasing Magnification

22 RNA Eukaryotic Gene Expression - Epigenetics

23 RNA Eukaryotic Gene Expression - Chromatin A Nucleosome is a Fundamental Unit of Chromatin Structure Contains Two Copies Each of Four Histone Proteins - H2a, H2B, H3, and H4 DNA is Wrapped Around this Octet Core and Histone H1 is on the Outside

24 RNA Eukaryotic Gene Expression - Chromatin Histone Proteins Are Rich in Basic Amino Acids, Making Them Positively Charged The Positively Charged Proteins Are Attracted Strongly to the Negatively Charged Phosphates of the DNA Chemical Modifications That Affect These Charges Influence Transcription

25 RNA Eukaryotic Gene Expression - Chromatin

26 RNA Eukaryotic Gene Expression - Chromatin Histone Acetyl Transferases (HATs) Use Acetyl-CoA to Put Acetyl Groups on Lysines in Histones This Neutralizes Their Positive Charge and Loosens Interactions With the Histones, Facilitating Re Acetylated Lysines Can Also be Binding Targets for Proteins Affecting Transcription Unwinding of Complex

28 RNA Eukaryotic Gene Expression - Chromatin Histone Acetylation Favors Euchromatin and Stimulates Transcription Histone De-Acetylases Reverse These Effects, Favoring Heterochromatin and Gene Silencing The Sirtuin 1 deacetylase in humans down-regulated with insulin resistance Numerous Chemical Modifications are Made to Histone Proteins Acetylation / Deacetylation Methylation / Demethylation Phosphorylation / Dephosphorylation Ubiquitination Chemical Modification to Bases in DNA Can Also Affect Transcription Open and Accessible to Transcription Complex Condensed and Not Accessible

29 RNA Eukaryotic Gene Expression - Epigenetics

30 Epigenetics Chemical Modifications in Histones and DNA Can Cross Generational Barriers Transcriptional Effects Can Thus Be Transmitted From Parent to Progeny Independent of the Sequence of the DNA. Such Influences are Called Epigenetic

31 Epigenetics Patterns of modification of chromosomes cross generational barriers. Genetic Imprinting Överkalix study 1. A greater body mass index (BMI) at 9 years in sons, but not daughters, of fathers who began smoking early. 2. The paternal grandfather's food supply was only linked to the mortality RR of grandsons and not granddaughters. 3. The paternal grandmother's food supply was only associated with the granddaughters' mortality risk ratio. The estimation of the percentage of human genes subject to parental imprinting is approximately one to two percent, currently parental imprinting has been identified in fewer than 100 distinct named genes.
