Mutations on the Lac repressor may

result in the lac operon never being induced

all the choices are correct

result in the repressor binding the operator even in the presence of the inducer

result in the inducer not being able to bind the repressor

result in constitutive expression of the lac operon

Expert Solution

Ans:- all of the choices are correct.

If there will be mution of lac repressor then inducer will not be able to bind to it and deactivate it.

it.Due to which even in presence of inducer lac repressor will not be inhibited and it will bind to operator gene to stop lac operon.

this will result in continuous inhibition of lac operon.

please answer all of them The map of the lac operon and repressor gene is presented here: I POZYA P is the promoter; O is the operator; Z encodes ß-galactosidase; Y encodes lactose permease; A encodes a transacetylase. The genotypes of merodiploids are shown below. For each one, choose the correct phenotype from the table below. (The same phenotype can be chosen for more than one genotype) PHENOTYPE ß-Galactosidase No lactose with lactose A) - + B) - - C) + + D) + - I--P+O+Z+/I+P--O+Z-- Select one: a. A b. B...

Which statement is NOT true about the repressor protein, in regard to the lac operon: Group of answer choices it blocks transcription when it is bound to the operator is only expressed when glucose is present it changes its three-dimensional shape (conformation) when it is bound to the inducer, allolactose All listed ARE true about the repressor binds to the operator region of the lac operon when glucose is being utilized

10. Mutations in the lacI gene (lacI-) constitutively transcribe the lac operon. Mutations in the operator region can also occur, also resulting in the constitutive expression of the lac operon. Using the “reagents” described below, design an experiment to test if a mutant that constitutively expresses the lac operon is mutated in the lacI gene or in the operator. X-gal – a colorless chemical that is a substrate for B-galactosidase, when cleaved it produces a blue dye that “stains” any...

1.)A.)The lac operon is inducible by the presence of lactose. Loss-of-function mutations in the lacI gene, which encodes the lac repressor (pick all that apply): A.)slow down the isomerization of lactose into allolactose B.)decrease the amount of permease activity in the cell in the presence of lactose. C.)prevent loss-of-function lacZ mutations from making the lac operon uninducible D.)are recessive to wild type B.)Mutations that eliminate the lacO operator site (pick all that apply): A.)slow down the isomerization of lactose into...

(6 pts) Several mutations of the lac operon have been identified. A bacterial mutant called OC (for constitutive operator) expresses the lac operon even when lactose is present, hence the name constitutive operator. What kind of mutation in the operator sequence could lead to a constitutive operator? Another mutant strain of bacteria called Is (for super repressor) leads to repression of the lac operon regardless of the presence or absence of lactose. What kind of mutation in the repressor protein...

Draw the lac operon promoter region with all its regulators (and polymerase if appropriate) in the PRESENCE OF LACTOSE and the ABSENCE OF GLUCOSE in the growth media in bacteria with a mutation in the lac repressor which prevents it from binding lactose and a mutation in the CAP that prevents it from binding cAMP. Indicate the level of transcription from the lac operon under those conditions (no expression, low expression, or high expression).
