QUESTION 9
1.
The trp operon of E. coli contains five
genes (trpE, trpD, trpC, trpBand trpA) for the
production of five proteins. The trp operon: Select all that apply.
contains 1 promoter
contains 5 promoters
encodes 1 mRNA
encodes 5 mRNAs
encodes 1 translational start site
encodes 5 translational start sites
QUESTION 10
1.
Trp Repressor (TrpR) regulates expression of the trp
operon. The product of one of the genes in the trp operson is indole
glycerophosphate synthetase, an enzyme required for tryptophan
synthesis. Based on the function of the genes in the operon, what is the
likely effect of tryptophan binding to TrpR?
increased binding of TrpR to DNA upstream of
the transcription start site
increased binding of TrpR to DNA downstream of
the transcription start site
decreased binding of TrpR to DNA upstream of
the transcription start site
decreased binding of TrpR to DNA downstream of
the transcription start site
