Question

The product of the lac z gene is an enzyme. What does this enzyme do in the bacterial cell?.

Answer 1

The product of the lac z gene is an enzyme, this enzyme do in the bacterial cell that enzyme is known as β-galactosidase, that's an important a part of the metabolism of lactose.

What are lactose restriction enzyme ?

When a restriction enzyme along with BamHI is used to reduce the plasmid, it might reduce the circle at one place. The reduce could open up the circle withinside the LacZ gene. This is due to the fact gene cloners have located a bit of DNA that has many limit enzyme reducing  in the LacZ gene.

It cleaves (separates) a disaccharide lactose molecule into a ways greater digestible glucose and galactose lacZ encodes β-galactosidase (LacZ), an intracellular enzyme that cleaves the disaccharide lactose into glucose and galactose.
