Lactose absent Lactose present β-Galactosidase Permease β-Galactosidase Permease a. − − + + b. − − − + c. − − + − d. + + + + e. − − − − f. + − + − g. − + − +
A mutant strain of E. coli has a premature stop mutation in the lacZgene, resulting in a non-functional b-galactosidase. Otherwise, all other parts of the operon are functional. Which component of an F' plasmid will restore normal regulation and function of the lac operon in the resulting partial diploid?
What experimental results would indicate that the mutation lacISlacIS is dominant to lacI+lacI+? In lacISlacIS/lacI+lacI+ partial diploids, the lac operon is in a repressed state in the absence of lactose. In lacISlacIS/lacI+lacI+ partial diploids, the lac operon is in a constitutive state in the absence of the repressor. In lacISlacIS/lacI+lacI+ partial diploids, the lac operon is in an activated state in the presence of lactose. In lacISlacIS/lacI+lacI+ partial diploids, the lac operon is in a repressed state in the absence of the repressor. In lacISlacIS/lacI+lacI+ partial diploids, the lac operon is in a repressed state in the presence of lactose.
What are the effects of the following conditions on Lac operon of bacteria? Please do not forget to mention about the role of repressor, activator, RNA polymerase in each case. Glucose is absent and lactose is present Glucose is present and lactose is present Glucose is present and lactose is absent
Imagine that a new strain of E. coli is discovered, and it contains the following novel genetic region including the lacI gene and the lac operon: *see image* Upstream of the promoter associated with the lac operon, there is a new operator element "Oν" (O-"nu"). This new operator has high sequence homology to O1, the DNA element that is bound with the highest affinity by the lac repressor. What would be the impact of this new genetic element regarding behavior of the operonin the absence (vs. the presence) of lactose and allolactose? Answer in terms of the protein levels of the lac repressor, as well as the proteins encoded by the genes lacZ/Y/A in the downstream region of the operon. Remember that proteins, once expressed/generated, will not persist forever, and that they have a natural lifetime (ending when they are degraded by the cell).
If the above gene is one of the three structural genes of the lac operon that codes for the protein/ enzyme responsible for breaking lactose into two molecules of simple sugars, what triggers the activation of this gene? a. Absence of Inhibitory protein b. Presence of lactose c. Absence of lactose d. Presence of Inhibitory protein e. Absence of Regulatory protein

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?
The lac operon of E. coli controls the expression of genes that code for enzymes involved in lactose metabolism. Mutations to various regions of the lac operon have been discovered which affect both the control of gene expression and the function of the gene products. These mutations include: I - = produces a repressor protein that cannot bind to the operator region IS = produces a repressor protein that cannot be removed from the operator region OC = cannot bind a repressor protein Z - = produces a defective (non-functioning) β-galactosidase enzyme + = wild type Detail the functionality of the lac operon under the following genetic and cellular conditions. You do not need to consider the role of CAP in your analysis. Genes Repressed (yes/no) Constitutive (yes/no) IS O+ Z+ IS OC Z+
