Its conversion of pyruvate, a process where each molecule loses one carbon atom with the release of carbon dioxide
Gene regulation is the control of when and where proteins are made.
Hope this helps :)
The answer is operon. These set of genes are transcribed together because they share a single promoter and operator. Therefore they are transcribed into one mRNA and translated together. These genes are, therefore, expressed together at all times. Examples are the tryptophan and lac operons of Escherichia coli
Answer:
a. + glucose, + lactose = On
b. - glucose, - lactose = Off
c. + glucose, - lactose = Off
d. - glucose, + lactose = On
Explanation:
Lac operon has both types of control, repressible and inducible.
Whenever glucose level is low in the cell, an enzyme known as adenylyl cyclase raises the level of cAMP which forms a dimer with CRP protein and they both act as activator of lac operon and cause expression.
Apart from this, when lactose is present in the cell, β-galactosidase enzyme metabolizes lactose to form allolactose which causes allosteric repulsion in the lac repressor and causes its removal from the operator. As soon as repressor is removed lac operon gets activated.
In wild type lac operons, the expression of lac operon occurs when glucose level is low in the cell and lactose is present but in this mutant presence or absence of glucose will not make a difference because CRP will bind Plac promoter independent of cAMP level i.e. activator CRP will work even in high glucose concentration. If lactose is present then lac operon will always express so in option 'a & d' lac operon will express but in option 'b & c' it will not express.
Answer:
Answer
Explanation:
All living things are composed of cells.
Cells are the basic units of structure and function for living things.
All cells come from pre-existing cells. Also, organisms grow by “adding on more cells” NOT by increasing the size of their cells.
