Gene Expression
infoWhy this? Gene regulation explains how cells with the same genome develop specialised structures and functions by producing different proteins. Understanding control of expression connects development and responses to environmental conditions with stem cells, epigenetics, and diseases such as cancer.
scheduleWhy now? With protein synthesis, mutations, inheritance, and cell division established, we can distinguish possessing a gene from expressing it. This deepens our explanation of cell specialisation and prepares us to understand the expression of introduced genes in recombinant DNA technology.
