Question
The dlagram below represents the tryptophan operon with the trp leader MRNA transcript enlarged to represent the AUG transiation start codon, two consecutive tryptophan amino acld codons (UGGUGG), and 4
regions (1, 2, 3, and 4) that base pair to form different hairpin-loop structures in the MRNA leader region. What would happen in this MRNA leader region when cells encounter very low levels of tryptophan in Its
environment?

The translating ribosome would stall at the two tryptophan codons, causing the formation of a hairpin-loop botween regions 3 and 4 to promote transcription of the trp operon.
The translating ribosome would stall at the two tryptophan codons causing formation of hairpin-loop between regions 2 and 3, which functions as an anti-lerminator of transcription
The translating ribosome would stall at the two tryptophan codons causing formation of hairpin-loop between rogions 1 and 2, which functions as a torminator of transcription.
The translating ribosome would stall at the UUUUUU sequence to prevent the formation of a transcription tormination kloop.
O The translating tibosomo wouid stall at the two tryptophan codons causing formation of hairpin-loop between regions 2 and 3, which functions as an anti-torminator of transcription.
