- Trp operon of E. coli is an inducible sytem since it turns on in the presence of tryptophan. In most bacteria, protein synthesis is initiated with a modified methionine residue (N-formylmethionine), whereas unmodified methionines initiate protein synthesis in eukaryotes. Both DNA replication and transcription follow a 5’ to 3’ direction of polarity. Write T if the statement is true and write F if the statement is falseThe following is a sequence of the leader region ofthe his operon mRNA in Salmonella typhimurium.What bases in this sequence could cause a ribosometo pause when histidine is limiting (that is, when thereis very little of it) in the medium?5′ AUGACACGCGUUCAAUUUAAACACCACCAUCAUCACCAUCAUCCUGACUAGUCUUUCAGGC 3′Describe operons in your own words, as if you were explaining what an operon is to someone who knew about DNA and cells etc but did not know what an operon was.

- Read aloud V Draw Highlight 2. You are studying the regulation of the lactose operon in Escherichia coli, by measuring expression of the lacZ gene (i.e production of beta-galactosidase). (a) You identify several loss-of-function mutations in which lacZ is never expressed, in the presence and absence of glucose and lactose. What components of the lac operon could be mutated to produce this phenotype? List all possibilities. (b) You identify another loss-of-function mutation with the following expression pattern: Media + glucose - lactose + glucose +lactose - glucose - lactose - glucose + lactose lacZ expression Low Low High High What components of the lac operon could be mutated to produce this phenotype? List all possibilities.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? Leader region trpE trpD trpC trpB trpA DNA 5' 3' Transcription trp leader sequence mRNA UGGUGG (tryptophan codons) AUG UUUUUU 1 3 4. 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…Answer as Directed. Below is the model of a lac operon. lac I lac Z с promoter operator +1 lac Y lac A DNA 1. In the absence of lactose and the presence of glucose in the bacterial growth media, what proteins are bound to the lac control region? Is the operon being transcribed then? 2. In the presence of lactose and the presence of glucose in the bacterial growth media, what proteins are bound to the lac regulatory region? Is the operon being transcribed then? 3. In the presence of lactose and the absence of glucose in the bacterial growth media, what proteins are bound to the lac control region? 4. Why is it adaptive for a bacterium to not express the genes that encode for that lactose utilization proteins when lactose is not available or when glucose is present? 5. Why is it adaptive for the structural genes for using lactose to be under the control of a single promoter, i.e., synthesize a polycistronic message rather than three monocistronic message?
