       Features All Cells Share
    Hereditary info stored in DNA
    Proteins are used as catalysts
    DNA replication occurs through templated
    polymerization
    Hereditary info transcribed into RNA
    RNA translated into protein

    Later we will discuss these things in
    greater detail
From DNA to Protein
  (Why is this eukaryotic?)

              Prokaryotic cells:
    No membrane bound organelles

    Between 500 and 4000 genes
    

     Eukaryotic cell may have been
               predators
     The primordial eukaryotic cell may have
    survived by eating other cells

    This would require:
    
        A large cell
       A flexible membrane
       An elaborate cytoskeleton
    
        Protected DNA (in an organelle, which one?)

       
           Similar genes may exchange segments

      Horizontal transfer
       
           Cell to cell transfer of genetic material
              e.g. Plasmids
              ancient mitochondrial genes

6
                Gene Families
     Created by generation of different genes
    from a precursor
     Speciation results in orthologous genes
       An organismal phylogeny is produced
    Gene duplication can result in paralogous
    genes
       A gene phylogeny is produced
