Tonly in cell biology the Lac operon in bacteria encodes proteins required to import and digest the disaccharide lactose in the absence of glucose. Lac operon is highly expressed only when two conditions are met: glucose must be absent and lactose must be present. Bacteria solves this issue by employing both an activator and a repressor for the same operon. But how? A Bacteria can turn on Lac operon even if the repressor is bound to the operator region. B When the two conditions are met repressor will not be present, activator will be active. Thus the operon will be ON. C Operon is always on when the repressor is not bound. D Operon will be off when the activator is bound and repressor is not. E Activators itself inhibit repressors from binding to operators.

What effect does lactose have on the bacterial cell’s lac operon? What does the absence of glucose do to the bacterial cell? You now add tryptophan to the cell. What would happen to the bacterial cell and its trp operon? What kind of regulation does lactose provide to an operon’s…
If glucose is not available, but lactose is available from the environment, what is the status of transcription of the lac operon genes? Explain your answer from both an evolutionary perspective and in terms of negative and positive regulation of the operon?
Consider the following scenario: A bacteria cell is surrounded by lactose, but there is no glucose readily available. Will the lac operon be active (on) or inactive (off)? Explain in your own words. If it is active, describe the levels (low or high) of transcription, and any positive regulators assisting with this. If it is inactive, describe the negative regulators assisting with this, and how the operon could be turned on. Question 48 options:
There is Hyaluronic acid synthesis occuring in Group X Strep and it is controlled by an operon with 3 genes, called hasXYZ. Based on the 3-line diagram model, a. How many ribosome binding sites are there for the protein? b. How many promoters are there for the genes? c. How many start codons are there for the protein? d. How many RNA Polymerase binding locations are there for the genes? e. How many proteins will be fully functional? f. How many mRNA strands are made?
please answer Why is it useful to have two different mechanisms of positive regulation? I.e. why would cells have both AraC and CAP-cAMP as activators in the Arbinose operon.
Which of the following statements is false?a) A derivative of lactose serves as an inducer of the lac operon.b) Signal transduction provides a mechanism for a cell to sense the conditions of its external environment.c) Quorum sensing allows bacterial cells to sense the density of like cells.d) An example of a two-component regulatory system is the lactoseoperon, which is controlled by a repressor and an activator.e) An ORF is a stretch of DNA that may encode a protein.
