When glucose is high, cAMP is low; CAP does not bind the lac operator, and RNA polymerase does not bind the lac promoter. CAP is only active when glucose levels are low, which means the cAMP levels are high, and therefore the lac operon can only be transcribed at high rate when glucose is absent. The importance of this is that the bacteria only turns on the lac operon and start using lactose only after they have used up all the preferred energy source which is glucose.
Explanation:
Understanding through into genetic risk factors for various illnesses in the human population come from mouse research. Manipulation of the mouse genome is quite simple, for example, adding or deleting genes to better understand their function in the body.
The majority of mice and rats used throughout medical studies are inbred, which means they are genetically virtually similar, making the outcomes of medical trials more consistent.
