Great video, it helped me to greater understand transcription is all about and how it works like a hand in glove with the 010 and -35 promoter. I must have asked for help with this for months now. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Thank you so much Dr. Gathman! I was really confused about the promoter region and the consensus sequences; this video helped A LOT! I feel more confident about my midterm next Monday now. Thank you!
I don't have an easy way to make the powerpoint available, but I put a link in the description to my Flickr teaching set -- the images are all in there.
@Allen Gathman thank u so much for ur usefull video. But could u pls explain to me what is the difference between a Genom and a gene?? and in the vid you´ve wrote that an E-coli bacteria has 4.5 billion base pairs and 4000 genes, is there any kind of calculation techniques or equation to determine the numbers of genes for base pairs??
The genome is one copy all the genetic material of an organism. A gene is a portion of the DNA molecule that codes for a single polypeptide (usually). Genes vary in size, so there's no guaranteed way to convert base pairs to genes. In prokaryotes, a typical gene is somewhere around 1000 base pairs in length (and the genome of E. coli is 4.5 Million, not Billion bp). In eukaryotes, genes may be much longer and more variable.

this is the way great people spent there spare time; spreading knowledge.

I wish I can see a picture of the whole process.

Awesome
How do I get the powerpoint for this presentation???
nice job professor really nice
If you're teaching a course, where can i find it?
thank you for sharing this
Thank You Professor Gathman
Very nice video.
No sound Dr.Anil Batta Professor Biochemistry at GGS Medical College,Faridkot.
THIS IS SO WONDERFUL. THANK YOU SO MUCH! :D
Very helpful, the promoter region always confused me
ahh, you are very good, i wish you were my professor.
very helpful, thanks!
Very good.
Great!
