An operon is a useful genetic element, because it
a. encourages the binding of RNA polymerase
b. allows coordinated expression of multiple related genes in prokaryotes
c. translates DNA sequence into amino acid sequence
d. encourages the binding of ribosomes in the correct location.
allows coordinated expression of multiple related genes in prokaryotes ( in cis (i.e., on the same contiguous piece of DNA) )
Note: several genes, next to each other in prokaryotic DNA, that are transcribed as a single piece of mRNA
To start with, the majority of the operon's genes are downstream of a solitary promoter. This promoter fills in as a recognition site for the transcriptional machinery of the RNA polymerase complex. Second, all genes in an operon really turn out to be a piece of a solitary messenger RNA atom, which is accordingly translated into singular protein gene items.

Match each term associated with genes and control of gene expression with the appropriate description. A transcriptional unit" that consists of promoter multiple genes under the control of a single regulatory element. A transcriptional regulatory protein (prokaryotic or eukaryotic) which works by turning on or increasing gene transcription. activator The region of a gene to which RNA polymerase binds.

The lac operon contains a DNA sequence known as the lac promoter (P or P+ for wild type; P– for mutant (RNA polymerase does not bind)) that serves as the RNA polymerase binding site. The lac operon also contains a DNA sequence known as the Lac operator (O or O+ for wild type; O– or Oc for mutant (lac repressor cannot bind)) which is the binding site for lac repressor. The lac repressor, a protein, is encoded by the lac...
