If a bacteria cell, that has the lac operon, is metabolizing lactose glucose is absent and allolactose has blocked the repressor. O lactose is present, glucose is present, and CAP/CAMP are in contact. O glucose may be present but the inducer has blocked the repressor. lactose is present, glucose is absent, and CAMP levels are low.

Gene Interactions

When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.

Gene Expression

Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
