Topic 8.2: Gene expression is controlled by a number of features (AQA A-level biology)

This bundle contains 5 detailed and engaging lessons, which have been planned to contain a variety of tasks that enable students to assess their understanding of the current topic and encourages them to make links to previously covered topics.

The lessons cover the following content from topic 8.2 of the AQA A-level biology specification:

• Totipotent, pluripotent, multipotent and unipotent cells
• iPS cells
• The stimulation or inhibition of the transcription of target genes
• Epigenetic control of gene expression by increased DNA methylation and decreased acetylation of histones
• The inhibition of translation of target mRNA by RNA interference
• The main characteristics of benign and malignant tumours
