When CAMP binds to the Catabolite Activator Protein (CAP), it causes a conformational change on the protein, which results in binding to the CAP- binding site on the DNA and molecule is known as a(n) of the lac operon. This conformational change induced by the binding of another transcription activation; allosteric effect transcription repression; binding effect translation; distortion effect O mutation; interactive effect attenuation; compression effect

An E. coli cell acquires a mutation in the gene that encodes CAP. The mutation affects the DNA-binding domain of CAP and ablates the ability of CAP to bind to the CAP site. Under which condition will the genes of the lac operon be transcribed at high levels? Glucose absent, lactose absent Glucose absent, lactose present Glucose present, lactose absent Glucose present, lactose present Under any of these conditions, the lac operon will not be transcribed at high levels
The molecules indicated below can be used experimentally due to their roles in relation to the expression of the lac operon. Drag the listed molecules to their corresponding bin. Reset Help ONPG IPTG X-Gal allolactose Dragable beta-galactosidase cleaves this molecule to form a visible yellow product. beta-galactosidase cleaves this molecule which then dimerizes to form a visible blue product. This molecule induces the transcription of the lac operon by inactivating the lac repressor.
When referring to attenuation in the regulation of the trp operon it would be safe to say that, when there are high levels of tryptophan available to the organism, ________. tryptophan inactivates the repressor protein translation termination of the trp operon is likely the trp operon is transcribed at relatively high levels the ribosomes stall during translation of the attenuator region transcription termination at the attenuator region is likely
Which of the following statements is not true of both the LacI and TrpR repressor proteins?a) an allosteric effector molecule changes the DNA-binding activity of the proteinb) transcription is blocked when the repressor protein is bound to the operatorc) the repressor protein is trans-actingd) the allosteric effector causes the repressor to release from the operatore) the operon regulated by the repressor produces the allosteric effector molecule
In the absence of lactose and the lacI repressor gene is mutated such that the repressor protein product can no longer bind to the operator, the structural genes will: [ Select ] ["No longer be expressed", "Be constantly expressed", "Be deleted from the operon"] In the presence of lactose and the lacI repressor gene is mutated such that the repressor protein product can no longer bind to the operator, the structural genes will: [ Select ] ["No longer be expressed", "Be constantly expressed", "Be deleted from the operon"]
A mutation in the repressor LacI causes it to lose the ability to bind its effector, allolactose. What will be the effect of this mutation in the presence of allolactose (assume glucose is absent)? a) LacI cannot bind to the lac operator (lacO) and transcription of the lac operon is blockedb) LacI is permanently bound to the lac operator (lacO) and transcription of the lac operon is blocked c) LacI cannot bind to the lac operator (lacO) and transcription of the lac operon increasesd) LacI is permanently bound to the lac operator (lacO) and transcription of the lac operon increases
Which of the following statements can be made concerning the role of the lac repressor (Lac R) in conferring negative control of transcription of the lac operon? (mark all the correct answers) All of the other answers are correct. Lac R dimers bind to two distant operator sites to form a Lac tetramer, which is facilitated by DNA looping. More than one operator sequence is required for maximal repression by Lac R. Mutations in Lac R that prevent it from binding allolactose result in repression of the lac operon, even in the presence of lactose. A repression loop formed by the binding of LacR to two operator sequences is required for maximal repression by LacR.
The process in which the two-dimensional structure of RNA from the L region of an operon can either prevent or allow transcription of the structural genes is called _____________. Group of answer choices Activation Co-repression Induction Attenuation Repression
For the following questions, describe the expression levels of the structural genes in the Lac operon under the conditions described. In the absence of lactose, the structural genes will:[ Select ] ["No longer be expressed", "Be constantly expressed", "Be deleted from the operon"] In the presence of lactose, the structural genes will:[ Select ] ["No longer be expressed", "Be constantly expressed", "Be deleted from the operon"] In the absence of lactose and the promoter sequence was mutated such that the RNA polymerase can no longer bind, the structural genes will:[ Select ] ["No longer be expressed", "Be constantly expressed", "Be deleted from the operon"] In the presence of lactose and the promoter sequence was mutated such that the RNA polymerase can no longer bind, the structural genes will:[ Select ] ["No longer be expressed", "Be constantly expressed", "Be deleted from the operon"] In the absence of lactose and the lacI repressor gene is mutated such that the repressor protein…
What is lac operon? Draw and/or identify the status of the lac operon in a given set of environmental conditions and/or cell mutations.
The TRP operon functions by attenuation. Briefly explain how attenuation works and why it is necessary, in addition to the repressor protein, in regulating the operon.
