Homework Answers
Ans:
In positive regulation, a(n) activator activates promoter.
Explanation:
- Most activators are DNA binding proteins that bind to promoter.
In negative regulation, a(n) repressor turns off the transcription of one or more genes.
Explanation:
- A repressor is a DNA or RNA binding protein that inhibits the expression of one or more genes by binding to the operator.

Question 12 2 pts What is the role of CAMP in regulation of the lactose operon? CAMP is a repressor of the lactose operon and turns off gene expression of the lactose operon CAMP is an activator and prevents the repressor protein from binding to the operator region of the operon which allows for the lactose operon to be turned "on". 5 CAMP is an inducer of the lactose operon and also an activator since it prevents the repressor protein...

Which of the following statements is correct concerning operon gene control? Positive control requires an activator protein to stimulate transcription of the structural genes within an operon. In negative control, a repressor protein inhibits or turns off transcription of the structural genes within the operon. An inducible operon normally is not transcribed. It requires an inducer molecule to stimulate transcription either by inactivating a repressor protein in a negative inducible operon or by stimulating the activator protein in a positive...

The gene machine program shows you what happens when lactose is present in E. coli, and how the lac operon is under negative control. However, the lac operon is also under positive control from a protein called CRP, eAMP Receptor Protein. The absence of the lac repressor is essential but not sufficient for effective transcription of the lac operon. RNA polymerase also depends on the presence of CRP. Like the lac repressor, which can bind to the DNA and lactose....

Cadbury chocolate eggs contain a highly addictive fictional (or is it??) sugar we'll call "cadburiose." Sawy gut microbes have evolved a novel operon to control expression of an enzyme necessary for cadburiose digestion (it is broken down into glucose). Your job is to deduce whether this operon is inducible or repressible, and whether the gene regulation is positive or negative. You test for alterations of gene expression by looking first at whether (and how much) mRNA for...
