Overview

6.2 Prokaryotic Gene Numbers Range Over
an Order of Magnitude
• The minimum number of genes for a parasitic
prokaryote is about 500; for a free-living
nonparasitic prokaryote it is about 1500.
FIGURE 02: Genome sizes and gene numbers are known from complete
sequences for several organisms
FIGURE 03: The number of genes in bacterial and archaeal genomes is proportional to genome size
6.3 Total Gene Number Is Known for
Several Eukaryotes
• There are 6000 genes in yeast; 18,500 in a worm; 13,600 in a fly; 25,000 in the small plant Arabidopsis; and probably 20,000 to 25,000 in mice and humans.
FIGURE 04: The number of genes in
a eukaryote varies from 6000 to 40,000
but does not correlate with the genome size or the
complexity of the organism
FIGURE 05: The S. cerevisiae genome of 13.5 Mb has 6000 genes, almost all uninterrupted
FIGURE 12: The average human gene is 27 kb long and has nine exons, usually comprising two longer exons at each end and seven internal exons
6.3 Total Gene Number Is Known for
Several Eukaryotes

6.4 How Many Different Types of Genes Are
There?
• The sum of the number of unique genes and the number of gene families is an estimate of the number of types of genes.
FIGURE 07: Many genes are duplicated, and as a
result the number of different gene families is
much less than the total number of genes
6.4 How Many Different Types of Genes Are
There?
• orthologous genes (orthologs) – Related genes in different species.• The minimum size of the proteome can be estimated from the number of types of genes.
FIGURE 09: The fly genome
6.5 The Human Genome Has Fewer Genes
Than Originally Expected
• Only 1% of the human genome consists of exons. • The exons comprise ~5% of each gene, so genes
(exons plus introns) comprise ~25% of the genome. • The human genome has 20,000 to 25,000 genes.
6.7 The Y Chromosome Has Several
Male-Specific Genes
• The Y chromosome has ~60 genes that are expressed specifically in the testis.
• The male-specific genes are present in multiple copies in repeated chromosomal segments.
• Gene conversion between multiple copies allows the active genes to be maintained during evolution.
FIGURE 15: The Y chromosome consists of X-transposed regions, X-degenerate regions, and amplicons Lewin’s Genes X, 2009.
6.8 How Many Genes Are Essential?
• Not all genes areessential. In yeast and
flies, deletions of <50% of the genes have
detectable effects.
• When two or more genes are redundant, a
mutation in any one of them may not have detectable effects.
FIGURE 16: Essential yeast genes are found in all classes
6.8 How Many Genes Are Essential?
• We do not fully understand the persistence of genes that are apparently dispensable in the genome.
FIGURE 17: A systematic analysis of loss of function for 86% of worm genes shows that only 10% have detectable effects on the phenotype
6.9 About 10,000 Genes Are Expressed at
Widely Differing Levels in a Eukaryotic Cell

9.3 The Bacterial Genome Is a Nucleoid
• The bacterial nucleoid is ~80% DNA by mass and can beunfolded by agents that act on RNA or protein.
• The proteins that are responsible for condensing the DNA have not been identified.

the center of the cell

9.4 The Bacterial Genome Is Supercoiled
• The nucleoid has ~400independent negatively supercoiled domains. • The average density of
supercoiling is ~1 turn/100bp.
FIGURE 07: The bacterial genome consists of a large number of
loops of duplex DNA
9.5 Eukaryotic DNA Has Loops and
Domains Attached to a Scaffold
• DNA of interphase chromatinis negatively supercoiled into independent domains of ~85 kb.
• Metaphase chromosomes have a protein scaffold to which the loops of
supercoiled DNA are attached.
FIGURE 09: Histone-depleted chromosomes consist of a protein scaffold to which loops of
DNA are anchored

9.7 Chromatin Is Divided into Euchromatin
and Heterochromatin
• Individual chromosomes can be seen only during mitosis. • During interphase, the general mass of chromatin is in the
form of euchromatin, which is slightly less tightly packed than mitotic chromosomes.
FIGURE 12: Regions of compact heterochromatin are clustered near the nucleolus and nuclear
membrane
