The organization and function of the lac operon in E. coli is shown in the following figures: XXI Transcription Repressor mRNA Translation RNA polymerase M M Flask ZYA XXXX Active M-repressor protein Repressor active, operon off. The repressor protein binds with the operator, preventing transcription from the operon.

When the inducer allolactose binds to the repressor protein, the inactivated repressor can no longer block transcription. The structural genes are transcribed, ultimately resulting in the production of the enzymes needed for lactose catabolism.

A sample of E.coli cells is transformed with a plasmid containing a transcriptional fusion including the promoter of an E.coli housekeeping gene and the LacZ gene. The transformed cells are plated out on selective medium containing X-gal. Which of the following best describes the likely results. a. Colonies will only be blue if lactose is also included in the growth medium. b. Colonies will only be blue if lactose and glucose are included in the growth medium c. Most of the colonies should turn blue. d. Presence of any white colonies may indicate deletion or mutation of the promoter. e. Both c. and d. are correct

If you did not get the expected results for the previous question, but you knew the genotype of the operon was correct, name two ways your experiment could have gone wrong.
1. Suppose there was a mutation in the inducer of the lac operon, such that the inducer was unable to function. How would the lac operon be affected? Please explain your reasoning in 1-3 sentences.
1. Please tell me: What's a mutation in moleculer terms? 2. When a mutation deletes a base in genomic DNA, how does it affect the expression product production and reading frame? 3. How does induction control enzyme synthesis using lactose operon?
In the tryptophan operon, if the leader peptide is translated normally A region 2 will pair with region 3 B a rho independent terminator will form. C both a and b D none of the above
28. Which statement does NOT explain why the lac operon would not be effectively regulated by an attenuation mechanism like the trp operon? 1.Lactose is a substrate for the lac operon protein products. 2.Products of lac operon enzymes are not used in protein synthesis. 3.Transcription and translation do not happen simultaneously for the lac operon. 4.Attenuation is a suitable regulatory mechanism for anabolic amino acid pathways. 5.All of these statements explain why regulation by attenuation would not be effective for the lac operon.
Like the lac operon, the hexose operon is controlled by a separate regulatory protein under the control of its own promoter (see the schematic of the operon below). The hexose regulatory protein is sensitive to fatty acyl CoA levels. When all hexose fuel sources are depleted, the bacteria switch to lipid metabolism and fatty acyl CoA levels increase. This turns expression of the hexose operon off. +1 +1 Regulatory Gene Pregulator P operon Hexose Operon Genes regulator promoter operon promoter
