Explain why (a) inactivation of the O2 or O3 sequence of the lac operon causes only a twofold loss in repression, and (b) inactivation of both O2 and O3 reduces repression ∼70-fold.
In the: Mutation of the regulatory region for a repressor protein in the lac operon. Explain: (a) What is the process affected? (b) What is the Effect on the process? (c) Does it affect prokaryotes, eukaryotes or both?
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.
Attenuation of the trp operon is regulated by the efficiency of translation of the trp leader (trpL).A scientist mutates the aminoacyl tRNA synthetase responsible for charging tRNATrp, resulting in1/100 the normal amount of charged tRNATrp. How would this mutation impact attenuation ofthe trp operon? Explain why.
To characterize the promoter of the gadA operon you made a series of deletion mutants removing pieces of the promoter to see what would happen. The results are found below: gad promoter gada gadX gadz 450 +1 lacz activity transcription start site pH 2.0 pH 7.0 A gad promoter beta-galactosidase (lacZ) +++ 450 gad promoter beta galactosidase (lacZ) +++ +++ 300 +1 gad promoter beta galactosidase (lacZ) 150 D gad beta galactosidase (lacz) -450 150 E gad promoter beta-galactosidase (lacZ) -450 -300 Based on these results, what can you conclude about the gad promoter? O a. The promoter is only regulated by repression Ob. The promoter is regulated by a mix of activation and repression O c. The promoter is only regulated by activation O d. The promoter has multiple operators and multiple enhancers
Under what conditions would you expect to see high levels of expression of the structural genes in the lac operon? Group of answer choices Lactose is absent and glucose is absent Lactose is absent and glucose is present Lactose is present and glucose is present None of these Lactose is present and glucose is absent
. Mutants were isolated in which the constitutive phenotype of a missense lacI mutation was suppressed.That is, the operon was now inducible. These suppressor mutations mapped to the operon, not to the lacIgene. What could these mutations be?
Given the Table below concerning the lac operon, match the letter with what would be occurring for each scenario. Repressor is bound to the operator, cAMP complex is bound and transcription is prevented. Allolactose is bound to the repressor, cAMP complex is bound, and transcription is prevalent. Allolactose is bound to the repressor, cAMP complex is not assembled, and transcription is slow Repressor is bound to the operator, cAMP complex is not assembled, and transcription is prevented.
Supply the words “off" or “on" in the blanks below: In an inducible operon, transcription is normally and must be turned In a repressible operon, transcription is normally and must be turned Briefly describe the overall function of the structural genes in the lac operon. Briefly describe the overall function of the structural genes in the trp operon. For the following descriptions of the bacterial lac operon, determine if lactose is present (P) or absent (A). The repressor is bound to the operator. The repressor is inactive. RNA polymerase transcribes the structural genes. Allolactose is bound to the repressor For the following descriptions of the bacterial trp operon, determine if tryptophan levels are high (H) or low (L). The repressor is bound to the operator. The repressor is inactive. RNA polymerase transcribes the structural genes. Tryptophan is bound to the repressor.

When X is absent, which of the following statements is most accurate? O RNA polymerase binding to the P₁ promoter is unblocked Equal amounts of ORF1, ORF2, and ORF3 are made Expression of ORF2 and ORF3 is prevented by the terminator t₁ O Expression of ORF1, ORF2, and ORF3 is de- repressed
The diagram below represents the tryptophan operon with the trp leader mRNA transcript enlarged to represent the AUG translation start codon, two consecutive tryptophan amino acid codons (UGGUGG), and 4 regions (1, 2, 3, and 4) that base pair to form different hairpin-loop structures in the MRNA leader region. Suppose a mutant bacteria has region 4 of the trp operon attenuator region mutated so that it cannot base pair normally. Would the bacteria grow in the absence of the amino acid tryptophan?
