If there is mutation in the regulatory gene of lac operon as a result the codon UGA in repressor mRNA is converted to UAG, it would result:
1. No synthesis of repressor protein
2. No change in the normal function of lac operon
3. The synthesis of abnormal repressor protein
4. Irreversible binding of repressor to the promoter
