00:01 Mhm. Ok. Not that. , folks. Uh let's get

00:19 So. Ok. Um So something this weekend, didn't it? I

00:32 going, oh my God, what this all about? Ok. So

00:37 that was kudos to uh that was effort. Excellent. I it turned

00:44 to be a good game. um anyway, I uh I will

00:50 a couple of points for good OK. Um So, but um

01:02 just uh be patient on when those up. I, I've got a

01:07 right here at two points. I'm not as proficient in canvas as

01:12 was in, in the whiteboard. I don't know how to add like

01:16 , a column yet of data. kind of funnels through a certain way

01:20 canvas. I haven't figured it out . So just know it'll be

01:25 it'll show up, just be OK? If I do start getting

01:30 about where's my two points? where's my two points, then it

01:33 away. All right, so don't that. All right. Um All

01:38 . So we are, oh, best part of this sarcastically. I'm

01:42 this, the best part of Saturday being one hour in a parking garage

01:45 I could get out. Ok, , we could get out. It

01:48 a bunch of us went. So was, that was insane.

01:53 So, um, ok, usual stuff. So weekly quiz this

02:00 , uh we're in into unit obviously, um, which actually really

02:07 up at the end of next Ok. So a relatively short uh

02:14 , um, even though we finish the second there, the exam is

02:18 not yet until a week later. the 10th, but remember that scheduler

02:24 up on, uh, Friday. , um, if you wanna be

02:28 already when it opens, that's, when it will for exam three.

02:34 . Uh, speaking of exams, two is right on target in terms

02:39 , you know, 70 average is of what I shoot for.

02:44 so, you know, um, , some to email, you

02:49 to arrange to see the exam. fine. Ok. Uh,

02:55 uh, in addition, coming by office hours, you can't make office

02:58 , other times can be arranged. a problem. So, uh,

03:03 there's two more exams, obviously, , three and four. So,

03:08 , again, if, um, , you need help or you want

03:14 or whatever, just arrange a time meet, just email me. That's

03:19 . Um, the, uh, you've got basically now at this

03:26 uh, it's about equal bet between , weight of exams and weight of

03:31 other stuff. Ok. Homeworks and . So, so very quickly,

03:37 know, the, the weight of exams will have a bigger influence on

03:42 grades. So obviously you wanna um, if you haven't been,

03:45 wanna improve that exam scores? So, uh, again, if

03:50 need help, just let me know . So, uh, again,

03:56 I said it, after the first , this exam two stuff doesn't show

04:01 because remember the final is not It's its own thing. Chapters 23

04:06 26 is exam four. OK. , um anyway, so let's uh

04:15 ahead. So this is a little of a recap here like we always

04:19 . OK. So, um So we are looking at kind of

04:25 of uh bacterial genetics. OK? looked at um how genes are kind

04:32 organized in prokaryotes, this operon And so um the uh looking at

04:42 chromosome here and so a hypothetical uh of genes. So structural genes

04:50 So, so the one promoter, genes associated with it, that's kind

04:55 the operon structure. OK. So the promoter operator and structural genes

05:01 are that element the opera. So the uh idea here being that

05:09 control the entire pathway, right? A B and C in this

05:14 would be part of a common metabolic , synthesizing s synthesizing something or maybe

05:21 down something, right? Cat bolic anabolic pathway. Um And by doing

05:27 this way you can, you of course, control the whole

05:30 turn it on, turn it et cetera. OK. So control

05:35 uh are regulatory genes somewhere, you , doesn't have, doesn't have to

05:39 right beside the opera can be Uh But nonetheless, that regulatory protein

05:46 from that gene interacts with the operator . OK. So that's kind

05:53 that's what we'll look at next week maybe starting Thursday into next week,

05:58 at how this occurs. OK. basically, it's a physical block,

06:03 know, to, to prevent OK. And uh as we'll

06:08 uh starting Thursday, this is one of control, but a very common

06:14 , a common way in bacteria in to control their genes. This is

06:19 we call transcriptional control. OK. , um the uh of course,

06:28 uh when you, when you have operon that are part of a common

06:33 metabolism, let's say we call that Regulon that when you're controlling multiple operon

06:41 in a kind of common metabolic feature nitrogen metabolism, for example.

06:47 So the reg um entity outside the chromosome, 12,000 nucleotides is kind of

07:03 average size, some can be bigger but they have their own origin of

07:09 that enables them to replicate themselves separately the chromosome. OK. And so

07:16 rolling circle replication is one of those we looked at and so plasmas

07:21 of course, replicate like the like the bidirectional pull the strands

07:26 copy OK. In pull the strands and copy. And then um but

07:34 rolling circle application, we'll see that in the context of conjugation.

07:40 So uh basically, we're just creating uh breaking a bond in that uh

07:47 phosphate backbone to release the three prime . So we're calling how DNA polymerase

07:54 in replication. It looks for this as nucleotides to it. Of

08:00 they're adding it based on the template this inner strand. OK. And

08:05 it, it grows in length going but displacing, displacing the, the

08:12 the uh opposing strand as it goes , right? And this is actually

08:17 strand here is what can be funneled a cell that it's mating with through

08:23 . For example, it doesn't have , it doesn't have to do this

08:26 in association with conjugation. But you , you do see that OK.

08:31 so the strand, the strand and can be replicated, copied primers and

08:37 preliminary to copy that strand and you two copies. OK. Um The

08:45 the uh certain other things you remember , like you remember the selection,

08:49 on to a plasmid, like high number, low copy number, select

08:53 pressure for, enables the cell to on to the plasmid. OK.

08:58 Then in transcription, we just looked kind of the sigma factor feature of

09:04 so that their ply uh gets to right spot in front of the gene

09:09 the Sigma factor, finding the promoter it and then initiates a transcription.

09:16 the minus 35 minus 10 is a consensus sequence. You see in many

09:22 promoters that are recognized by Sigma Uh But again, to roll the

09:26 factors to find the promoter, um it to bind, initiate transcription,

09:32 it basically just falls off and combine another cli race. OK. And

09:38 finally, here is kind of, talked about uh expression levels that will

09:42 more important. And we get to 10. But uh what we call

09:48 expression versus high level, OK is about, you know, the affinity

09:53 the promoter um uh for that RN pli. OK. And so we

09:59 enhance that. So binding, binding to a promoter means eye

10:03 OK. So if we can enhance , we can promote greater expression,

10:10 greater expression means more transcripts, which more protein being made. OK.

10:16 transcription factors uh activators uh et these collectively uh interact with a promoter

10:24 promote this high level expression. Um The same thing, same thing

10:30 us, right? You can involve just these factors here binding, but

10:36 too can bring the chromosome into play it becomes part of that, making

10:43 promoter very um high affinity. So, uh anyway, so that's

10:50 of in a nutshell. What we last week. OK. Uh And

10:55 the next slide as well is kind the last slide of the chapter 78

10:59 and there's more of a summary. ? OK. Um Is there any

11:04 about stuff last week maybe? OK. So, uh so

11:10 this is kind of uh this is kind of the last slide I think

11:13 that, of that uh chapter And so it's more of a summary

11:17 well. So, so we got , here's our DNA, OK.

11:23 we're gonna see the relationship between DNA the RN A and the protein,

11:27 ? And so here's our promoter. . So remember um it may not

11:32 obvious to you but things like a , uh an operator sequence, these

11:37 DNA, right? We're talking about here, OK? In front of

11:42 plus one is the start of the uh uh area. OK. And

11:48 uh we then have, so remember coding and template stra, right,

11:52 minus, OK. The um the message you get from copying that

12:01 right, sort of the polycysts, ? So we have this, in

12:04 example, we have just two right? But uh they are the

12:09 for those are part of the same transcript. This is all this

12:14 all one continuous transcript. So you the elements here start stop for each

12:23 . So each, even though they're one continuous message within that will be

12:30 punctuation mark if you will start and , are, are in each section

12:34 that transcript. OK. Um The ribosome obviously that's where translation comes

12:43 OK. So the 78 ribosome is intact large um complex comprising the 50

12:52 S units. The 30 S is the um um initially binds to the

12:59 binding site and then the larger one with it to form the form the

13:04 complex. And so this represent Bonnie . That's that Shine Del Garno

13:09 So that's just the name of the guys that discovered this. OK.

13:14 so um that binding then remember, you get the polyribosome formation.

13:22 Ribosome binds, starts to translate another binds and they keep going,

13:27 So it gets full of ribosomes each different states of completeness, completeness of

13:34 , right? And so of you form uh the protein. So

13:38 see ribosome binding site here, And then here as well.

13:47 So the whole thing will be full ribosomes that polysome formation. OK.

13:53 of protein being made. OK. um any questions about that?

14:01 So um let's, so we had question before. This is one of

14:06 before and after ones, right? we look at this. So we

14:09 this before. So let's look at again and see what we got.

14:16 . Mm Right. Yeah. Mm All right. Let's count down from

15:31 . OK. Um I think I last time F was like a big

15:37 . So D is correct. Um The operator serves as a site

15:47 if anything regulatory protein binding to OK. Operon possesses one promoter,

15:54 genes of a single operon code for are the same, not different pathways

15:59 wouldn't make any sense. It's gonna the same in a path. The

16:03 factors bind to the promoter not to sh the shine Dogan is for the

16:09 . OK. All right. Um this concludes 78. Remember going to

16:17 textbook? It's not a big chunk this. It's not the entire

16:21 So just make sure you stick to we're covering now. OK. Um

16:27 question that, so here's one, will take us into the next

16:39 Mm hm. Mm hm. So remember if you don't think you

17:36 a correct answer, you know what pick. So give a second for

17:44 to change their answers. OK. we go. Yes. Um It's

17:58 OK. So, and we're gonna through each of those blow by

18:02 So just hang on. Um Obviously giveaway for a not being correct game

18:11 bacteria have gametes, gonads, nope, not even the manliest of

18:18 coli have those. Um OK. transfer. All right. So um

18:29 here. So uh um OK, look here, vertical transmission.

18:36 So vertical transmission, think of it how you got your genes,

18:42 You got yours by vertical transmission, ? Except um, you didn't have

18:48 one parent here, right? You two, right? Two genetically dissimilar

18:55 , male, female, right? all know the birds and the

18:58 So, um, but you obviously that's what you inherited from your

19:03 , except from your father instead of , right? So in the pro

19:07 world, vertical gene transfer is basically fish. So divides, obviously,

19:14 daughter cells receive a copy of the . OK. So that's the counts

19:20 most of the acquisition of genes that receives, put a number on

19:29 Uh 80% of the genes uh acquired way. That's, that's how they're

19:36 in the bacterial cell, right? this other 20 whatever percentage um is

19:44 horizontal gene transfer, right? So is kind of all about. So

19:49 with vertical gene transfer, you're going . Bacteria are basically a xerox

19:56 right? Just put a cell in and how many copies do you

19:59 Right. They're all identical like we know that's not the case,

20:03 Uh All E coli is in your right now are not even genetically

20:08 right? It's gonna be variations between . OK. Um M maybe very

20:13 , but some may be a little , a little bit larger differences.

20:18 . So how does that happen if doing binary fission and copying each

20:22 Just, you know, making copies copies we know that mutations can

20:27 right. Spontaneous mutations occur, mistakes made during replication. Um Sometimes they're

20:33 fixed um and they remain OK. that's what contributes to variation.

20:40 Same thing happens in us but just as, at quite the same rate

20:44 it does in bacteria. OK. occurs at e at an even higher

20:49 . Uh So bacteria is like one one in a million. I think

20:54 error is made and it's not And that, I think it's like

20:57 in 10 to the 10th or something that. It's, it's very

21:02 It's good. It's a very high . Uh But for bacteria it's,

21:06 know, it's, it's a higher rate than what we have.

21:11 But it's not crazy. But because grows so fast, right? Even

21:15 a single colony of cells, which a million plus cells, certainly there

21:22 a few in there that um have a mutation and the, the mutation

21:26 have to mean it's now changed into completely different because most, most mutations

21:32 to be kind of just silent. don't do anything good or bad.

21:35 ? Or they're bad. All That's mostly what mutations result in,

21:40 ? Either no effect or a bad . OK? But sometimes it's a

21:45 one. OK. But nonetheless, the point here is that, um

21:49 can see because procurers grow so we can see, you know,

21:52 little mutation can can occur and we see that kind of real time almost

21:58 ? Within, uh uh you a few hours, if not

22:02 Ok. But nonetheless, so horizontal transfer is another way to acquire genes

22:08 they don't reproduce sexually. Right? a way to generate variation,

22:12 So remember why this variation is so , right? It's important to nec

22:18 necessarily be a clone, right? variation in the population, right?

22:24 is evolution 101, right? Um in the population provides uh I like

22:30 refer to it as options, If you're in a big population and

22:36 in an area where some kind of change occurs and now you don't have

22:41 best combination of genes maybe and you survive as well and maybe this group

22:45 here does because they have variations of genes maybe acquire something different. So

22:51 enables them to survive future generations and inherit those genes. So I think

22:57 all know this concept. So that's it's good to have variation,

23:01 If we were all clones, Basically, you everybody would respond the

23:06 way, good or bad. So having variation is really what it's

23:11 about uh across the whole span of . OK. Um And so these

23:19 to acquire variation through horizontal mechanisms, we can't really do. OK?

23:26 bacteria can or Kia can it through four mechanisms? OK. So this

23:32 kind of put this into context So here is a um for the

23:36 blue blob is basically the, basically a gene pool, right? So

23:43 they say pan genome, that means of us, of all E

23:47 we've sequenced and we've done this for and have a huge database is about

23:55 little over 10,000 genes. Uh Different are known to be in among E

24:01 , doesn't mean each E coli has , right? So gene pool,

24:06 ? You don't have all the genes the gene pool, you have a

24:08 of them. Ok. So yellow just that. So yellow is the

24:14 E coli. It has about of 10,000, it will have about

24:20 OK. And so in the core . So that refers to that would

24:27 genes common to all E coli. ? All E coli will have those

24:34 67. OK. And those are like uh proteins involved in um uh

24:44 replication, protein synthesis, uh certain processes like glycolysis, the like in

24:54 because ribosome genes, these things like are all core functions that the cell

25:01 to have to even live, So that's what we call them core

25:05 genes. OK. Uh The other are things that can enable their survival

25:12 certain conditions. Um We call them genes. The uh and so an

25:18 here, you know, going back the not all new codes are

25:21 Uh, here's an example of two different strains of K 12 is

25:25 you using, lab, um, . Uh, 0157. I call

25:31 Chipotle E coli. Ok. food borne pathogen. Ok.

25:37 and that right there tells you what it different right from, from your

25:42 e coli genes involved in causing right? Various genes. Ok.

25:48 it has a number of those different your average K 12. OK.

25:54 so looking at and this is you know, it says e coli

25:58 , but it's pretty much similar, or less across the board for most

26:04 types. Um is that mostly protein , unlike our genome? OK.

26:10 Only about 2% of virus is protein . So um there's always gonna be

26:17 segments of the genome for regulating right? Because regulation is a

26:21 big, big thing. OK. uh remember that not all genes code

26:27 proteins, right? So we're gonna some of that code for things like

26:31 , right? Different different RN A and uh then the 20% right?

26:37 20% acquired from other microbes. And so again, as I

26:45 these two kind of uh categories of , right? The core and the

26:49 OK. Core. Again, think it as the informational genes, gene

26:56 or synthesis, et cetera. Now, so with the 20%

27:01 How does one determine that? You look at a genome and go

27:06 . Yeah, this, this this over here that that came from horizontal

27:09 transfer. OK? How, how kind of a basic way that uh

27:17 can look at that this is all computers, you know, just looking

27:22 data, uh crunching numbers, that of thing. And so uh you

27:27 look at an E coli segment of chromosome. OK. And C so

27:34 term GC, so percent GC is guanine sing ratio, right? If

27:41 recall when you learn DNA structure and bio uh who is that guy?

27:49 his name? Char Bob's rule. . That um I don't think I'm

27:55 that right. But that's he's the that came up with. Oh

27:59 Uh the A T ratio and A ratio, right? Um That G

28:06 GC is a uh a number that was used or is used sometimes to

28:13 at um relationships between organisms, They have a similar percentage GC,

28:19 go oh They might be closely OK. So, so um the

28:29 so that parameter was used for quite while to look at relationships until of

28:34 DNA and 16 sr a lot. nonetheless, um the uh so E

28:40 have about that percent of, of GC in their DNA,

28:44 all E coli do. OK. so you can go, OK,

28:48 I'm looking at a stretch of um it should, if it's E

28:53 DNA, it shouldn't have that percent GC. Ok. But you may

28:58 this and, and look, well, here's a continuous stretch and

29:02 gonna be a significant number of bases be statistically accurate, right? You

29:07 come across, say 2500 bases in row that have that. I

29:12 that's a pretty good, uh, number. And so if that has

29:17 54.8 then that's significantly different. So then you go, OK,

29:23 among that has that kind of, , of GC content? And this

29:27 does and our bacter Ara, it's enteric bacterium like E coli. Um

29:34 so it could have acquired whatever that , it could have acquired that through

29:39 kind of one of these transfer mechanisms that species. OK. Um

29:45 so that's kind of a basic way how you do this. There's other

29:48 this is kind of a kind of first pass kind of a thing just

29:52 kind of see if this is really to look at further. OK.

29:57 you know, it's, it's a method. Uh not necessarily only the

30:00 one, but you corroborate it. uh um but the point is e

30:06 has a lot of genes acquired this as do other pro curios.

30:12 And so what we're gonna look at this section is different ways this can

30:16 . OK. And so this this is really just a basic

30:21 We're going into each of these in little more detail. But um

30:26 I just pull the plug. Come . OK. Come on,

30:37 Hold on. I really just pulled plug on it. My microphone went

30:41 too. Goodness. OK. Ah pulled the uh literally pulled the plug

30:50 has to reboot. OK. There go. Jeez. Sorry. Mm

31:11 me pause
