Main levels of gene<br />

expression<br />

1. Genome. (nucleus) Makes gene available for expression<br />

1. Chromosome de-condensation<br />

2. DNA methylation<br />

3. Histone acetylation<br />

4. Changes in HMG proteins, nuclear matrix<br />

2. Transcription. Makes primary RNA transcript hnRNA<br />

1. Control by transcription factors<br />

3. RNA processing, and nuclear export<br />

1. RNA splicing, other processing events<br />

2. Movement into the cytoplasm, where translation happens<br />

4. Translation (cytoplasm)<br />

1. mRNA degradation and turnover<br />

2. Translation control by initiation factors, repressors, microRNAs<br />

5. Post-translation<br />

1. Protein folding<br />

2. Polypeptide cleavage<br />

3. Modifications<br />

4. Destination to correct location in the cell, or for secretion<br />

Resulting Functional protein.<br />

further regulation by degradation, turnover, phosphorylation etc.<br />
