The lac operon contains three genes: lacZ, lacY, and lacA for β‑galactosidase, galactoside permease, and thiogalactoside transacetylase, respectively.
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 will increase the concentration of lac gene products and which will decrease the concentration of lac gene products.

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...

26. The lac operon in E. coli consists of genes that code for enzymes necessary for the breakdown of lactose. When lactose is absent, the operon is inactive because a repressor protein binds to a specific site in the lac operon. When lactose is present, lactose molecules bind to the repressor protein, causing the repressor protein to dissociate from the binding site. In the absence of glucose (a preferred energy source for bacteria), the protein CAP binds to a regulatory...

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.
