What would be the result if the U-rich sequnce after the fourth stem loop in the trp operon was replaced by a UG-rich sequence? -attenuation would occur if tryptophan was high -attenuation would occur if tryptophan was low -attenuation would not occur if tryptophan was high

-attenuation would not occur if tryptophan was high

A deletion in an operon removes the terminator. How will that affect the transcript that is produced from the operon? -the transcript will be produced and normal in length -the transcript will be produced but shorter than normal -the transcript will be produced but longer than normal -the transcript will be produced but will contain a deletion -transcript will not be produced

--the transcript will be produced but longer than normal

allosteric regulation is accomplished by: -a small molecule that fits into an enzymes active site -a large protein that blocks an enzyme's active site -a small molecule that fits into a site on the enzyme that is not the active site -a small molecule that covalently modifies a site on the enzyme that is not the active site

-a small molecule that fits into a site on the enzyme that is not the active site

in jacob, monad, and pardee's experiment, what would have been the conclusion if all four tubes produced a yellow color when b-ONPG was added? -expression of the lac operon is constitutive whether lacl is functional or not -lacl provides the binding site for the repressor -lacl encodes a diffusuble repressor -researcher added too much b-ONPG

-expression of the lac operon is constitutive whether lacl is functional or not

How many promoters are in an operon? 1 2 3 depends

1

In Jaciob, Monad, and Pardee's experiment how many functional copies of lacl were there in the merozygote? 0 1 2 3

1

what stem-loop conformations favor attenuation? 1-2 1-2 and 2-3 2-3 1-2 and 3-4

1-2 and 3-4

an enzyme catalyzes a substrate into a final product. When the concentration of the final product is high enough it binds to a regulatory site on the enzyme. This binding at the regulatory site changes the shape of the enzyme, which prevents it form bindingg the substrate and prevents formation of more final product. This is an example of: posttranslational modification allosteric enzyme translational repressor methylation

allosteric enzyme

antisense RNA does which of the following? -inhibits the formation of the open complex in transcription -occupies the A and P sites of the ribosome -binds to the mRNA and prevents translation -prevents the correct folding of a newly formed peptide

binds to the mRNA and prevents translation

DNA that contains instructions for two or more structural genes produces monocistronic mRNA true false

false

In the lac operon the operator is an example of a trans-effect genetic regulation true false

false

a riboswitch only affects translation of an operon true false

false

in the lac operon the operator site is recognized by an activator protein true false

false

negative transcriptional regulation is conducted by activator proteins true false

false

operons that code for anabolic enzyme systems are typically regulated by inducers true false

false

operons that code for catabolic enzyme systems are rtypically regulated by repressors true false

false

enzymes involved in metabolism are most likely regulated via feedback inhibition acetylation methylation none

feedback inhibition

if a bacteria is placed in an environment that contains both glucose and lactose, the regulation of the lac operon will allow which nutrient to be processed first? glucose lactose both will be processed equally neither will be processed

glucose

translational regulatory proteins recognize specific areas of what molecule? tRNA ribosome rRNA mRNA

mRNA

A mutation in the lacI gene prevents the gene product from binding allolactose. What will the expression level of the operon be in the absence of lactose? -no transcription -positive regulation -constitutively active -transcription will occur only in the presence of glucose

no transcription

Which of the following is an example of post translational regulation in prokaryotes? -sterically blocking the ribosome -phosphorylation of an enzyme -incorporation of antisense RNA -incorporation of antisense RNA -altering the structure of the mRNA

phosphorylation of an enzyme

An activator is present and results in the increase in transcription of the target gene. This is an example of: termination positive control negative control feedback inhibition

positive control

the regulation of protein function is called: posttranslational regulation transcriptional regulation translational regulation posttranscriptional regulation

posttranslational regulation

In the lac operon, the CAP site is located next to the ____. When both lactose and glucose are present, this leads to a rate of transcription that is ___. -terminator, low, -promoter, high -terminator, high -promoter, low

promoter, low

a gene is inducible and under negative control. Which of the following pairs will allow expression of this gene? activator and repressor activator and inhibitor repressor and inducer repressor and corepressor

repressor and inducer

A deletion in an operon removes the promoter. How will that affect the transcript that is produced from the operon? -the transcript will be produced and normal in length -the transcript will be produced but shorter than normal -the transcript will be produced but longer than normal -the transcript will be produced but contain a deletion -transcript will not be produced

transcript will not be produced

If CAP could not bind to its CAP site, then what would be the result? Assume lactose is present in each scenario. -transcription would be difficult to repress in the presence of glucose -transcription would be difficult to activate in the presence of glucose -transcription would be difficult to activate in the absence of glucose

transcription would be difficult to activate in the absence of glucose

what is the gene responsible for attenuation in the trp operon? trpL trpR trpD trpC

trpL

true

the term enzyme adaptation is used to describe an enzyme that appears in a living cell following exposure to a specific substrate true false

true

In a particular e coli strain a mutation in the thiMD operon results in improper formation of the stem loop secondary structure making it impossible to bind TPP. There are two enzymes encoded by the thiMD operon. How many of the enzymes encoded in the thiMD operon are translated? two zero three one
