B2. Consider E. coli cells, each having one of the following mutations: a) a mutant lac operator (Oc locus) that cannot bind repressor. b) a mutant lac repressor (I- gene product) that cannot bind to the lac operator. c) a mutant lac repressor (the Is gene product) that cannot bind to lactose. d) a mutant lac promoter that cannot bind CAP + cAMP. What effect would each mutation have on the function of lac operon (assuming no glucose is present) (10 points).
Homework Answers
a, if repressor cant bind on operator, then constitutive expression of lac operon occur.
b,if regulatory gene produce defective repressor such that it cant bind to operator so constitutive expression of lac operon occur.
C,if lac repressor cant bind to lactose , then it will remain bound to operator even in presence of lactose and lac operon remain off even in presence of lactose.
D, cAMP+CAP increases expression of lac operon in presence of lactose , so if they don't bound then expression of lac operon gene will be less.

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....
