What would occur if the repressor of an inducible operon weremutated so it could not bind the operator?(A) irreversible binding of the repressor to the promoter(B) reduced transcription of the operon’s genes(C) buildup of a substrate for the pathway controlled by theoperon(D) continuous transcription of the operon’s genes
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.
What would occur if the repressor of an inducible operon were
mutated so it could not bind the operator?
(A) irreversible binding of the repressor to the promoter
(B) reduced transcription of the operon’s genes
(C) buildup of a substrate for the pathway controlled by the
operon
(D) continuous transcription of the operon’s genes
