In the absence of lactose and the lacY structural gene contains a missense point mutation, the structural genes will: [ Select ] ["No longer be expressed", "Be constantly expressed", "Be deleted from the operon"] In the presence of lactose and the lacY structural gene contains a missense point mutation, the structural genes will: [ Select ] ["No longer be expressed", "Be constantly expressed", "Be deleted from the operon"] In the absence of lactose and the lacA structural gene contains a frameshift deletion mutation, the structural genes will: [ Select ] ["No longer be expressed", "Be constantly expressed but the protein will be truncated and possibly non-functional", "Be constantly expressed but the protein will be longer and possibly non-functional"] In the presence of lactose and the lacA structural gene contains a frameshift deletion mutation, the structural genes will: [ Select ] ["No longer be expressed", "Be constantly expressed but the protein will be truncated and possibly non-functional", "Be constantly expressed but the protein will be longer and possibly non-functional"]
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
In the absence of lactose and the lacY structural gene contains a missense point mutation, the structural genes will:
