Resource summary

7.2 Transcription and Translation
  1. Nature of Science
    1. Looking for patterns, trends and discrepancies
      1. Epigenetic factors
        1. Analysis of changes in the DNA methylation patterns
          1. TOK
            1. Nature vs Nurture
              1. Relative importance of an individual`s innate qualities vs those acquired through experiences is still under discussion
      2. Transcription occurs in a 5' and 3' direction
        1. RNA polymerase adds the 5' end of the free RNA nucleotide to the 3' end of the growing mRNA molecule
          1. Regulation
            1. Nucleosomes help to regulate transcription in eukaryotes
              1. Eukaryotic cells modify mRNA after transcription
                1. Splicing of mRNA incease the number of different proteins an organism can produce
              2. The promoter as an example of non-coding DNA with a function
                1. The environment of a cell and of an organism has an impact on gene expression
                  1. Gene expression is regulated by proteins that bind to specific base sequences in DNA
