How are Genes Regulated? DNA-binding Activators Are Key To Specific Gene Expression Mediator RNAPII TFIIH TFIIF TFIIE TFIIB TFIIA TFIID Chromatin modification complexes Transcription initiation apparatus Activators Gene
How are Genes Regulated? DNA-binding activators are key, but there are additional factors Mediator RNAPII TFIIH TFIIF TFIIE TFIIB TFIIA TFIID Chromatin modification complexes Transcription initiation apparatus activators repressors coactivators corepressors transcription apparatus chromatin factors RNA processing RNA transport RNA degradation Activators Gene
Genome-wide Gene Expression (mRNA) can be Measured with DNA Microarrays Transcription apparatus mRNA Gene RNAPII TFIIH Activators ATGC TACG hybridization label mRNA
Some Additional Numbers Yeast: 6200 genes ~200 transcriptional regulators Human: 30,000 - 50,000 genes ~1700 transcriptional regulators >100 cell types

DNA array technology Coated glass microarrays In situ oligonucleotide synthesis arrays
Hybridization and Scanning—Glass slide arrays - Prepare Cy3, Cy5- labeled ss cDNA - Scan - Hybridize 600 ng of labeled ss cDNA to glass slide array
Glass Slide DNA Arrays • Large DNA molecules, PCR products, oligonucleotides, • and proteins can be arrayed • Typically non-specific binding to glass or coated surfaces • High quality coated slides commercially available
Cartesian PixSys 5500 withquill printing technology • 3 x 1 inch microscope slides, • specially coated with amino groups • 50 slides/ bed • Up to 32 pins (quills) • 10,000 spots/slide • Spots are 100-200 µm in diameter • Hybridization volumes: 20-100ul
Array Scanning Laser based - fluorescent emission
