Part A - Short Answer If tryptophan (trp) codons containing two trp codons in its leader...

Part A - Short Answer

If tryptophan (trp) codons containing two trp codons in its leader region were mutated to serine (ser) codons, then a high level of expression of the mutated operon would be visible ONLY if trp and ser were absent at the same time from the media. Explain why this occurs.

Part B - Multiple Choice

Circle the correct relationship between the trp operon and the repressor.

  • The repressor acts in 'cis'.
  • The repressor protein is responsible for the formation of the "termination" stem loop.
  • Binding of the repressor protein leads to attenuation of the trp operon.
  •   The presence of tryptophan results in increased expression of the tryptophan gene
  • When bound to tryptophan, the repressor is able to bind the operator of the trp operon

Part C - Multiple Choice

Before transcription of the lac operon can commence, RNA polymerase must strongly bind to the promoter. Circle the correct statement as to why this occurs.

  • lacI+ is mutated to lacI-
  • a CAP-cAMP complex binds to the CAP site in the promoter in the absence of glucose.
  • CAP binds to the CAP site in the promoter in the presence of glucose.
  • catabolite repression occurs in the presence of glucose.
  • catabolite repression occurs in the absence of glucose.
