- Molecular biology, please explain in detailarrow_forwardRead 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.arrow_forwardExpression of a cloned eukaryotic gene in a bacterial cellinvolves many challenges.

- What structural features does the trp operon share with the lac operon?arrow_forwardplease help?arrow_forward. Recall that the trp operon has a special leader sequence (trpL) between the operator and the structural genes that offers attenuation as a mechanism for regulation of gene expression. (A) Draw a diagram of a trpL region of the operon when tryptophan is abundant in the cell.Label the following features: the DNA, 5’ and 3’ polarity of the RNA, the regions 1, 2, 3,and 4 and poly-U of the RNA, the pair of Trp codons (UGG), the ribosome, and RNA-Pol,along with any stem-loop structure that would form under these conditions (B) In the above example, will the rest of the trp operon genes be expressed? Briefly describe your reasoning why or why not (C) The trp codons in region 1 of the trpL gene have mutated to cysteines (UGG to UGC). What will be the effect on attenuation gene regulation of the trp operon? Brieflyexplain your reasoning.arrow_forward
