Translation of the 5' UTR will stop at the position of the mutation in the region 1. As a result region 3 of the 5'UTR will pair with region 2 in the mRNA causing transcription to continue in the structural genes.
When region 2 pairs with region 3 then antitermination loop is formed and allow transcription to continue and when region 3 pairs with region 4 if forms a termination loop which stops transcription.

You have discovered a new mutant strain of E.colithat has a mutation in the trpL gene, so that there are no trp codons in the resulting mRNA transcribed from this gene. Explain how this might affect the attenuation / regulation of the trp gene expression.
What would be the most likely effect on the transcription of the trp structural genes for the following mutations? mutation that prevents ribosome binding to the mRNA 5' UTR mutation that changes region 1 tryptophan codons into alanine codons mutation that creates a stop codon in region 1 of mRNA 5' UTR deletions in region 2 of the mRNA 5' UTR deletions in region 3 of the mRNA 5' UTR deletions in region 4 of the mRNA 5' UTR deletion...

1. (1 points) A deletion mutation in the leader sequence of the trp operon removes the two tryptophan codons that are involved in attenuation. Predict the effect of this mutation on the expression of the trp structural genes in E. coli cells grown in media that lacks tryptophan. 2. (2 points) What protein family members are the main protein components of the RISC complex? How does the RISC complex target specific mRNAs for silencing? 3. (3 points) In bacteria, the...
Shown below is the trp mRNA leader. (A) How does attenuation in the trp operon work to control the levels of Trpe peptide? What happens when tryptophan levels are high in the cell? When they are low?

3. Consider a hypothetical strain of E. coli (strain 401) that contains two mutations that affect tryptophan biosynthesis. The first mutation is a single nucleotide substitution that converts the second tandem Trp codon in region 1 of the Trp leader sequence into a stop codon (see slides 2-7 of Lecture 24 on iLearn) trp structural genes trpE trpD trpC trpB trpA PO Trp Leader Met-Lys-Ala-lle-Phe-Val-Leu-Lys-Gly-Trp-Trp-Arg-Thr Ser- Stop Assume that strain 401 also contains a mutation in the gene for the...
Which of the following occurs as a result of an abundance of tryptophan in E. coli? A.The leader sequence is not transcribed. B.The 5 trp genes (TrpA � TrpE) are not transcribed. C.Stalling of the ribosome at trp codons in the leader sequence D. The 5 trp genes (TrpA � TrpE) are transcribed, but not translated. Which of the following features of the trp operon is likely least essential to the process of attenuation? A.The order of the structural genes,...
A. You are studying a strain of bacteria that carries a temperature-sensitive mutation in one of the genes required for DNA replication. The bacteria grow normally at the lower temperature, but when the temperature is raised they die. When you analyze the remains of the bacterial cells grown at the higher temperature you find evidence of partly replicated DNA. When the strands of this DNA are separated by heating, numerous single-stranded DNA molecules around 1000 nucleotides long are found. Which...
