The tryptophan operon found in E coli is a group of genes that encode the enzyme that E coli use for biosynthesis. The operon can be turned on and off. The operon is regulated and controlled by TRP Repressor. When bound to tryptophan, the trp repressor blocks the expression of the operon.

The tryptophan operon is a repressible operon meaning that it is active when there's less TRP available. Therefore, to control the TRP operon when tryptophan is available, the tryptophan molecule must bind to the TRP repressor.

Whats the difference between genotype and phenotype.

$\huge{\green}\fcolorbox{blue}{cyan}{\bf{\underline{\red{\color{red}Answer}}}}$

The genotype is a set of genes in the DNA which are responsible for the unique trait or characteristics.
Whereas the phenotype is the physical appearance or characteristic of the organism.
Thus, we can find the human genetic code with the help of their genotype.
Organisms may look the same but still may not have the same genotype.
One can determine the genotype by the biological tests.
On the other hand, the phenotype is determined by an individual’s genotype and can be expressed as genes or by the visible traits.
Such traits are hair color or type, eye color body shape, and height, and many such more.
It will depend on the genotype but also influenced by the factors existing in the surrounding.
