Transcript
How Is Gene Expression Regulated in Prokaryotes?
1. Regarding the operons of prokaryotes:
Draw an operon and label the promoter, operator, and genes that code for
enzymes.
Indicate the overall purpose of a operon and the specific function for each of the
above regions.
Explain how the lactose operon is related to nutrient availability; what does the
regulatory gene do?
2. Compare the function of the trp operon to that of the lactose operon; how is
each regulated?
3. Indicate the difference between an inducible operon and a repressible operon; how is
this related to regulation of genes that synthesize a product vs. those that degrade a
substrate.
