A bacterium has a faulty lac operon in which there is a structural defect in the operator. In this bacterium there is a structural problem with a segment of DNA that binds a repressor.

  • A protein known as a repressor binds to an operator site. The operator in this instance (and numerous others) is a section of DNA that lies just downstream of the RNA polymerase binding site or overlaps with it (promoter). In other words, it lies between the operon's promoter and its genes.
  • The repressor protein inhibits the synthesis of messenger RNA by attaching to the promoter region of the gene(s) (mRNA). The control of gene expression in cells requires repressor proteins.
  • Thus, by physically impeding the RNA polymerase's ability to operate, these repressor proteins stop the gene from being transcribed.

Circle the recombinant DNA constructs below:
Gekata [30.6K]

The correct answer is that a bacteriophage lambda chromosome containing the human collagen gene, because Recombinant DNA is the name given to DNA molecules that have part of DNA derived from two or more sources, usually these sources are different species. Recombinant DNA technology is also known as molecular cloning or even gene cloning.

B. A bacteriophage lambda chromosome containing the human collagen gene

<h3>How is recombinant DNA produced?</h3>

Obtaining recombinant DNA is based on the molecular cloning technique. The process can be summarized as follows:

  1. The first step is to isolate a DNA fragment, which contains the gene of interest. Remember that each gene makes a protein.
  2. The gene of interest, now isolated, is placed in a medium with a fragment of circular bacterial DNA, the plasmid and the restriction enzymes.
  3. The bacterial plasmid has the ability to insert a fragment of DNA external to its own genome.

<h3>What is DNA and what is it for?</h3>

DNA is the structure responsible for the transmission of all genetic characteristics — such as eye, skin and hair color, physiognomy, among others — in the process of reproduction of living beings. Thus, the main function of DNA is to transport information contained in its sequences, called genes.
