RNA rocessing RNA rocessing trna rocessing Bacterial trna genes contain 2 to 5 trna s. Eukaryote trna each gene codes for 1 trna. In Bacteria RNase (endonuclease) cuts at mature 5 end. Mature 3 end produced by a combination of RNase & RNaseD (exonuclease) in Bacteria and Eukaryotes. All trna s have a 3 end of CCA. trna Nucleotidyltransferase adds CCA to 3 end of those trna s that do not have the sequence as part of the gene. trna rocessing (continued) Numerous Bases Modified Including 1-Methylguanosine Ribothymidine Inosine 4-Thiouridine Dihydrouridine seudouridine
rrna rocessing Bacteria contain 3 pieces of rrna. 5S (120 nucleotides), 16S (1540 nucleotides), & 23S (3200 nucleotides) contained on single gene. Eukaryotes contain 4 pieces of rrna. 5S (120 nucleotides), 5.8S (160 nucleotides) 18S (1900 nucleotides), & 28S (4700 nucleotides). 5S piece a single gene. The other three pieces on one gene. rrna rocessing (continued) Complex process Combination of endonucleases and exonucleases separate the pieces Specific bases methylated using SAM as methyl donor rrna pieces fold into complex three dimensional structures as they interact with / bind to ribosomal proteins

Some terminology: ROMOTER ELEMENTS are regions of non-coding DNA that regulate the transcription of nearby genes; older nomenclature CIS-REGULATORY ELEMENTS. TRANSCRITION FACTORS are proteins that bind to the promoter elements to bring about the initiation of transcription or the genes that code for these proteins; older nomenclature TRANS- REGULATORY ELEMENTS.
