Answer: Options A
and F are correct
Explanation:
The operon produces the polycistronic mRNA.
Since beta-galactosidase and permease are produced, there is no
misregulation at the transcriptional level. i.e. the defect cannot
be in the LacI, promoter, or operator.
LacA is not produced: This could be
due to a mutation in the coding sequence of LacA which creates a
premature translation termination codon.
If there is a nonsense codon produced at the end of the LacY coding
sequence, it will also result in no-production of lacA
protein.

The lac operon contains three genes: lacZ, lacY, and lacA for β‑galactosidase, galactoside permease, and thiogalactoside transacetylase, respectively. The operon also contains a promoter site and an operator site. The regulatory gene includes the I gene for the Lac repressor protein and a promoter for that gene.The lac operon undergoes negative regulation. In the normal condition, the Lac repressor protein is active. Allolactose, an isomer of lactose, is the signal molecule that binds to the Lac repressor. Determine which events...

Background: Several genetic regions are needed for lactose metabolism: P(promoter), O(operator), lacZ(b-galactosidase gene), lacY(permease gene), lacA(transacetylase gene) and lacI(repressor gene). Strains can be defined as having + - c or s copies: + refers to the functional version, - refers to a defect version, c refers to a constitutively active version and s refers to a superrepressor version. Each strain may or may not have an extra-chromosomal plasmid containing the genes indicated. TA=transacetylase it would be very helpful if you...
for 1-5 define those The Lac operon is an inducible set of genes found in bacteria cells that helps the bacteria to metabolize the disaccharide lactose. When it is turned on it produces proteins that pump lactose into the bacteria cell and break it down into glucose and galactose, which can then be used by the bacteria as a source of energy The two figures below show the Lac Operon along with the lacl gene (which regulates the Lac operon...
