Below is a merozygote for components in the lac operon. A plus/positive sign (+) indicates a normal ‘wild type’ version of a sequence. A negative sign (-) ,C or S, indicates a mutant form of the sequence.
lacIS lacP+ lacOc lacZ+ lacY+ lac A+/(plasmid) lacI- lac P+ lacO+ lac Z+ lacY+ lac A+
The operon on the plasmid is inducible, repressible, permanently off, or constitutively expressed?

4. Monod's group figured out how the different parts of lac operon work by constructing "meroploidl E. coli cells. These have two copies of each of the lac operon genes, one in their chromosome and one on a plasmid* (actually a separate chromosome fragment introduced via conjugation), so they are "partial diploids." Many different versions of these were constructed, with different combinations of mutations in the chromosomal and/or plasmid- encoded genes. +/- indicate active/inactive gene products.

Microbiology question
51. Lacl regulates the expression of the lac operon, which encodes enzymes necessary for lactose metabolism. The genotypes of different E. coli strains are listed below. (For this exercise, lacP refers to the promoter, and lacO refers to the operator site where Lacl binds. lacl+ means wild-type, whereas lacl- indicates a loss-of-function mutation. lacO- means that Lacl cannot bind the operator.) For each strain, indicate whether the LacZ protein will be synthesized under the conditions indicated, when glucose...

5. Jacob, Monod, and Pardee used various E.coli mutants to help determine how the lac operon is regulated. The descriptions of some of the mutants are listed. For each E. coli mutant determine if the lac operon would be on or off in a lactose-only environment. laci mutant: This mutant produces a super repressor that is not inactivated by allolactose. It will still stick. Operater will be off, lacO mutant: This mutant has an altered operator sequence so that the...

In this problem you will explore how to solve problems involving partial diploid lac operon bacterial strains. Bacterial strains that are "partially diploid" have two copies of the lac operon because they aquired a plasmid carrying just the lac operon region. One copy of the lac operon region is on the recipient's bacterial chromosome, and the other copy is on the F' plasmid that was introduced into the cell by conjugation. Partial diploid genotypes are written with the F' segment...

The lac operon in E. coli is a well-studied gene system, and
β-galactosidase (β-gal) is the product of the lacZ gene. The
diploid conditions represent the addition of a plasmid carrying
different components of the lac operon. Determine if β-gal will be
generated under the conditions. Assume that glucose is absent. A +
in the genotype indicates a functioning gene, while a – indicates a
loss-of-function allele. The OC is an operator mutant that cannot
bind the lacI protein. Use...

For each region of the lac operon on the F' plasmid, I+ P+ Oc Z− Y+ , determine whether the region is wild type (that is, it produces a functional protein or it's a correct protein binding sequence) or whether the region is mutated. Select all that apply. Select all that apply. The promoter sequence is correct/functional. The repressor protein is produced. The operator sequence is correct/functional. Beta-galactosidase is produced from the lacZ gene. Permease is produced from the lacY...
