Bacteria were grown in culture. At various time points,
substances were added or removed from the culture
medium. To assay the effects of the substances on operon
gene expression, samples of bacteria were collected at
one-minute intervals and levels of specific proteins and
mRNAs were determined. If the operon under
investigation is a repressible operon, which arrow indicates
the addition of a molecule that binds the repressor
protein?
