The Levels of Eukaryotic Gene Expression
About the Lecture
The lecture The Levels of Eukaryotic Gene Expression by Georgina Cornwall, PhD is from the course Gene Regulation.
Included Quiz Questions
What is the role of untranslated regions (UTRs) of mRNA in eukaryotes?
- UTRs play critical roles in ribosome binding, translation initiation, translation termination, and post-transcriptional gene expression.
- UTRs help initiate transcription by guiding RNA pol to bind at the TATA box.
- UTRs of mRNA help in the charging of tRNA with their respective amino acids.
- UTRs of tRNA help in the exclusion of exons to create an entirely functional mature mRNA molecule.
- UTRs prevent the premature termination of the replication and transcriptional processes.
Which of the following is paired correctly?
- TATA box – RNA polymerase binding site
- 5' untranslated region – present at the end of transcription
- 3' untranslated region – present at the start of transcription
- Poly (A) ["polyadenylation"] site – present at the start of transcription
- TATAAA sequence – DNA polymerase cofactor

Excellent lecture.

Dr. Georgina turns difficult topics in genetics into clear and simple concepts that are easy to digest! For the first time I feel like am starting to understand the Central Dogma and related subjects better thanks to her. She's also greatly commited to student success by answering to students questions and concerns about the subject.
