Answer) repressor / overlapping
The type of regulator that binds an operator is called a(n) repressor and usually binds to a sequence on the DNA located overlapping the RNA polymerase binding site.
(a repressor is a DNA- or RNA-binding protein that inhibits the expression of one or more genes by binding to the operator or associated silencers. A DNA-binding repressor blocks the attachment of RNA polymerase to the promoter, thus preventing transcription of the genes into messenger RNA. )

The LacI protein is released from the operator sequence upon binding of IPTG, allowing the transcription of all the genes within the lac operon. In this case, LacI is called a transcriptional _______. In comparison, CRP binds to the CRP binding site sequence upon binding of cAMP, enhancing transcription. CRP is called a transcriptional _______. Select one: a. activator ;;;;; activator b. activator ;;;;; repressor c. repressor ;;;;; activator d. repressor ;;;;; repressor e. None of these
The trp operon is considered to be repressible because: 1.The repressor binds to the operator, blocking RNA polymerase from transcribing, unless tryptophan is ABSENT 2.The repressor binds to the operator, blocking RNA polymerase from transcribing, unless tryptophan is PRESENT 3.The repressor binds to RNA polymerase at the promoter to help it find the -10 sequence 4.The trp operon has five genes that code for enzymes needed to synthesize tryptophan, only expressed when trp is PRESENT
Suppose there is a protein "A" which binds to a DNA sequence and increases transcription of the gene CBC23. In the presence of molecule "C", protein "A" changes structure and can no longer bind to the DNA sequence, resulting in reduced transcription of CBC23. What terms describe "A" and "C" respectively? Enhancer and activator Repressor and Effector Effector and activator Activator and enhancer Polymerase and activator Activator and effector
Identify each description as typical of eukaryotic repressors or bacterial repressors. Leave unplaced the description that is not characteristic of either group. binds to DNA-binding motifs on RNA polymerase and directly inhibits it binds to a silencer that uses transcriptional activator proteins to block RNA polymerase binds to an operator downstream of the promoter site and blocks RNA polymerase

How does the Trp repressor prevents RNA polymerase from initiating transcription? by blocking the ribosome binding site by forming a loop in the operator that restricts the passage of the polymerase by binding to the polymerase to inhibit its catalytic activity by physically blocking the DNA binding site of RNA polymerase

A protein binds a DNA sequence downstream of a promoter. This results in an increased rate of transcription of the gene. Which of the following site is likely to be attached? a. Operon b. Terminator c. Activator binding site d. Promotor The following are produced by algae To prepare the insert for the gene cloning, you need to find a proper source of the DNA fragment. PCR is one of the most common ways to get the gene that you...
termination factor A bacterial protein called rho factor binds to an mRNA at the rut site it moves along the RNA polymerase in a 5-to-3" direction chasing after the mRNA When it reaches the hairpin loop it removes it and then proceeds to break through the hydrogen bonds holding the RNA-DNA together, which successfully removes the RNA polymerase. TATA box 3-10-5 DNA-DNA rho site RNARNA
There are several possible mutations in the trp operon: trpP -is a mutation in the promoter sequence that prevents RNA polymerase from binding to the promoter and initiate transcription of the trp operon genes. trpOcis a mutation in the operator sequence that prevents the trp repressor protein from binding to the operator to block transcription of the trp operon genes. trpR-is a mutation in the repressor protein that either prevents repressor protein from being made or produces a mutant repressor...
