E. coli consumes both glucose and lactose. If both are available, which is preferred? After glucose is consumed, how does the absence of glucose and presence of lactose influence transcription of the lac operon (describe both the roles of the repressor and cAMP).

The gene machine program shows you what happens when lactose is present in E. coli, and how the lac operon is under negative control. However, the lac operon is also under positive control from a protein called CRP, eAMP Receptor Protein. The absence of the lac repressor is essential but not sufficient for effective transcription of the lac operon. RNA polymerase also depends on the presence of CRP. Like the lac repressor, which can bind to the DNA and lactose....

In E coli the lac operon will express enzymes for the digestion of (Glucose/Lactose) when it is present, but if both the sugar mentioned before and (Glucose/ Lactose) are present the lac operon is repressed, resulting in the (Glucose/ Lactose) being used first. If there are high levels of cAMP, this means (Glucose/Lactose) levels are low, this results in a (Represser/Promoter) being activated and (Decreasing/Increasing) transcription of the lac operon.

26. The lac operon in E. coli consists of genes that code for enzymes necessary for the breakdown of lactose. When lactose is absent, the operon is inactive because a repressor protein binds to a specific site in the lac operon. When lactose is present, lactose molecules bind to the repressor protein, causing the repressor protein to dissociate from the binding site. In the absence of glucose (a preferred energy source for bacteria), the protein CAP binds to a regulatory...

The lac operon contains a DNA sequence known as the lac promoter (P or P+ for wild type; Pβ 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; Oβ 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...

A. Describe in detail the regulation of the prokaryotic lac operon for the following environment: Glucose is present, lactose present, & the repressor protein is mutated such that the allosteric site is non-functional and can no longer bind its substrate. Be sure to specify the presence or absence and location of Lac I, allolactose, cAMP, CAP, and RNA polymerase. B. Indicate whether transcription is occurring at a basal level, a high level, or not at all.

5. Jacob, Monod, and Pardee used various E.coli mutants to help determine how the lac operon is regulated. The descriptions of some of the mutants are listed. For each E. coli mutant determine if the lac operon would be on or off in a lactose-only environment. laci mutant: This mutant produces a super repressor that is not inactivated by allolactose. It will still stick. Operater will be off, lacO mutant: This mutant has an altered operator sequence so that the...

Question 12 2 pts What is the role of CAMP in regulation of the lactose operon? CAMP is a repressor of the lactose operon and turns off gene expression of the lactose operon CAMP is an activator and prevents the repressor protein from binding to the operator region of the operon which allows for the lactose operon to be turned "on". 5 CAMP is an inducer of the lactose operon and also an activator since it prevents the repressor protein...
