These are biochemistry questions:
Questions are part A and B.
![You are studying a new operon that you have discovered in E. Coli that you have named the Up
Late operon for its ability to help E. Coli grow and divide by feeding it Red Bull. You have
discovered three genes (sleep, wings, and energy) encoded within the polycistronic template
made from the operon. The transcription start site is indicated at the arrow and the protein
encoding sequences are encoded by the boxes with the names of the genes inside, with a blow
up of the nucleotide sequence at the promoter, with the transcription start occurring at the C.
