Eukaryote genomes

The protein coding regions of DNA, the transcripts of which ultimately appear in the cytoplasm as single mRNA molecules, are usually interrupted in the eukaryotic genome by large intervening sequences of... 

The DNA in a eukaryotic genome can be divided into different sequence classes. These are unique-sequence, or nonrepetitive, DNA and repetitive-sequence DNA. In the haploid genome, unique-sequence DNA generally includes the single copy genes that code for proteins. The repetitive DNA in the haploid genome includes sequences that vary in copy number from two to as many as 10 copies per cell.

Tab. 2.1 Genomic features of representative pathogenic bacterial and eukaryotic genomes...

Eukaryotic genomes contain information for more than 20 E2s and hundreds of E3s. In contrast to the wealth of components devoted to marking protein substrates for destruction, only one enzyme, the 26S proteasome, has been found to degrade ubiquitylated proteins. However, there is complexity here as well, since the 26S proteasome is an assemblage of at least 30 different subunits. Moreover, there is a growing list of proteins that act as proteasome activators, adapters, or accessory factors. In this chapter I focus on basic biochemical and physiological properties...
