Gene regulation governing lactose operon of E. coli that involves the lac I gene products is:
1. | positive and inducible because it can be induced by lactose. |
2. | negative and inducible because repress or protein prevents transcription. |
3. | negative and repressible because repress or protein prevents transcription. |
4. | feedback inhibition because excess of β galactosidase can switch off transcription. |
Which one of the following is wrongly matched?
1. | Transcription- Writing information from DNA to t-RNA |
2. | Translation- Using the information in m-RNA to make protein |
3. | Repressor protein- Binds to an operator to stop enzyme synthesis |
4. | Operon- Structural genes, operator, and promoter |
