B

Genes within an operon: a. tend to be regulated by a separate and different regulatory mechanisms. b. Are generally involved in the same biochemical pathway. c. Are expressed as a polydactylous RNA.

A

If transcription proceeds without pausing, what stem loop structures are formed in the trpL mRNA? a. 1-2 and 3-4 b. 1-3 only c. 2-4 only d. 1-3 and 2-4

terminator

In bacterial cells, transcription and translation occur simultaneously. RNA polymerase will begin transcribing the trp mRNA until it reaches the leader sequence. Here, a ribosome begins translating the leader sequence starting at its AUG codon. When the ribosome gets to the sequences for the two trptophans, it pauses because it has to wait for trptophan (it isn't readily available because it is present in a low concentration.) This pause in the ribosome's movement affects the mRNA's secondary structure. Since the tryptophan codons are on segment 1 of the leader sequence, 1 cannot bind 2, thereby freeing 2 to bind 3 (forming the antiterminator.) Since 2 is bound to 3, 3 cannot bind to 4 to form the __________. Therefore, RNA polymerase continues transcribing the entire operon.

B

In negative regulation, a(n) _____ turns of the transcription of one or more genes. a. activator b. repressor c. enhancer d. regulon

A

In positive regulation, a(n) _____ activates a promoter. a. activator b. repressor c. enhancer d. regulon

3 (three)

In the lambda phage, P(R) is the right promoter and P(L) is the left promoter. P(R) is regulated by O(R), the right operator region containing three operators, and P(L) is regulated by O(L), the left operator region which also contains three operators.

C

Negative _____ occurs because the gene product regulates its own synthesis. a. repression b. activation c. autoregulation d. catabolite repression

T

T/F: A gene which is usually turned down but can be activated is under negative control.

T

T/F: A polycistronic mRNA is transcribed from the lac operon when lactose is present and glucose is absent in the E. coli cell.

F

T/F: All of the genes involved in control and functioning of the lac operon are inducible.

T

F

T/F: Bacterial mRNA usually has a long lifespan compared to other kinds of bacterial RNA.

F

T/F: If regions 1 and 2, and 3 and 4, of the trpL mRNA form stem loops, the trpE gene will be transcribed.

T

T/F: If regulation of a gene involves a repressor protein, it is an inducible gene.

T

T

T/F: The process of attenuation in the trp operon turns off the operon when it is not needed by the cell.

C

The E. coli _____ gene godes for B-galactosidase. a. lacA b. lacY c. lacZ d. lacE

trp operon

A

The __________ complex binds to an activator site upstream from the lac promoter and activates lac operon transcription. a. cAMP-CRP b. ATP c. allolactose d. enhancer

allolactose

The binding of a repressor is never infinitely strong. Sometiems (meaning approximately once a generation) the protein will come loose and RNA polymerase will be able to transcribe the gene. This is called the basal level of transcription. With this basal level, permease (all one to two molecules of it) is available to bring lactose into the cell and B-galactosidase (again, all one to two molecules of it) is available to convert a small amount of lactose into ______. Then _______ binds to the repressor, causing its conformation to change so that it falls off the operator. RNA polymerase can then freely transcribe the lac genes making the lac enzymes much more readily available.

A

The most convincing evidence that lacI is a diffusible protein is: a. A partial diploid with only one functional lacI gene is able to regulate both copies of the lac operon. b. A partial diploid with only one functional lacO is unable to regulate both copies of the lac operon. c. The lacI gene is located very close to the lac operon. d. Mutants lacking lacI function do not respond to changes in lactose concentration.

glucose

_______ is invovled in the inhibition of phosphorylation of adenylate cyclase which prevents cAMP formation. With no cAMP, the cAMP-CRP complex cannot form and therfore cannot bind to its activator site upstream from the promoter to activate synthesis. Another way ______ can slow lac operon expression is by acting through an inducer exclusion mechanism. In this mechanism, a product of _____ (EIIA) binds to lactose permease (the product of the lacY gene), which inactivates it. This prevents lactose from entering the cell and being converted into allolactose. With no allolactose, the repressor protein will remain bound to the operator.

polycistronic

lac operon

the ________ codes for B-galactosidase, which metabolizes lactose into glucose and galactose, permease, which helps lactose to enter the cell, and B-galactoside transacetylase, which has an unknown function.
