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.

True or false? in host-versus-graft rejection, the recipient recognizes the donor tissue as foreign and rejects the transplant;
snow_tiger [21]
The statements above are true;
In a host-versus-graft rejection the recipient's immune system recognizes the donor's tissue as foreign and rejects the transplant. On the other hand, in a graft-versus-host rejection, the donor tissue recognizes the recipient's tissue as foreign and the transplant rejects the recipient, causing destruction of the recipient's tissue and possibly death. Its important also to note that there are two types of rejection, the acute rejection, where the rejection of transplanted tissue that occurs several weeks after transplant. it is delayed hypersensitivity reaction, and the chronic rejection is a rejection of transplanted tissue that can occur at a late time. Immune complexes form in the arteries supplying the graft, choking off the blood supply and the tissue is rejected.
