Question
The catabolite activator protein (CAP)
Which is the correct choice from the options below?
is a second repressor molecule that can prevent transcription from the lac promoter.
needs the co-repressor cAMP to bind to the lac operator.
binds DNA only when associated with cAMP.
cannot bind DNA when bound to the allosteric inhibitor cAMP.
a and b, but not c or d

Step 1
The lac operon can be defined as the operon or group of genes consist of a single promoter that can be transcribed as a single mRNA. The genes present in the operon encode for the proteins that allow the bacteria to utilize the lactose as an energy source.

In the presence of hydroxyurea, the transcription factor GATA2 becomes upregulated, turning on the expression of the y-globin gene, while the transcription factor BCL11A which is involved in the silencing of the y-globin gene, is rendered inactive. Q6: BCL11A is a and a transcriptional of the y-globin gene.arrow_forward
