Operon is a functional unit of DNA which contains cluster of genes.
Advantage:-
Regulons are group of genes regulated as a single unit
Advantage:-

b. What is the polycistron in the Lac operon? In the Trp operon? d. Name an aspect of prokaryotic gene regulation that can only occur in a prokaryote and not a eukaryote e. Provided the wildtype lac operon, give three different examples of mutations, what they target, and how they disrupt WT regulation of the operon. f. Describe how the RNA leader of the Trp operon can repress/induce gene translation
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...
In the lac operon, what are the likely effects on operon transcription of the mutations listed below? PLEASE EXPLAIN your answers. I think I answered the first part of the question but need help explaining why. Mutation of the consensus sequence in the lac promoter. i. Transcription is blocked. Mutation of the repressor binding sites in the operator sequences. i. Transcription is constitutive. Mutation of the lacI gene affecting the allosteric site of the protein. i. Transcription is blocked. Mutation...
