A prophage is a bacteriophage (often shortened to "phage") genome inserted and integrated into the circular bacterial DNA chromosome or exists as an extrachromosomal plasmid. This is a latent form of a phage, in which the viral genes are present in the bacterium without causing disruption of the bacterial cell.

When glucose is high, camp is _____ : cap _____ bind the lac operator, and rna polymerase _____ bind the lac promoter. high; doe

mote1985 [20]

When glucose is high, cAMP is low; CAP does not bind the lac operator, and RNA polymerase does not bind the lac promoter. CAP is only active when glucose levels are low, which means the cAMP levels are high, and therefore the lac operon can only be transcribed at high rate when glucose is absent. The importance of this is that the bacteria only turns on the lac operon and start using lactose only after they have used up all the preferred energy source which is glucose.
