When an inducer molecule attaches to the repressor protein what happens to the repressor protein?

Biology
1 answer:
faust18 [17]3 years ago
8 0

The inducer deactivates the repressor protein. This allows the gene which the repressor protein suppresses, to be actively transcribed. When the inducer fits in its allosteric site on the repressor protein, the repressor changes conformation and is not able to bind the operator site of the operon.

Imagine that a toxin is introduced to the body and inhibits the establishment of the proton gradient in the intermembrane space.
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

ATP synthase would be unable to produce ATP

Explanation:

ATP synthase depends on the proton gradient in the intermembrane space to enable it to produce ATP. As a consequence of this, the toxin will make it inactive. Oxidative phosphorylation is now inhibited in this case, as opposed to substrate-level phosphorylation.

Pyruvate is a product of glycolysis, and it will not be affected by a toxin. NADH is very important in the establishing of a proton gradient, so it is expected that it would be unable to be oxidized due to the toxin. Protons produced in the conversion of NADH to NAD+ actually establish the proton gradient. If the gradient is absent, NADH is then not likely to be oxidized.

Unlike sexual reproduction, vegetative reproduction 
sveticcg [70]
<span>Asxual resproduction takes place by only one organsim. There is no fusion, no chnage in the chromosome numbers. Thus, an asexual reproduction produces offspring by the process of mitosis, where each cell divides and form two daughter cells, which are similar to each other.</span>
