| 1. | The trp operon is active only when cellular tryptophan is scarce.
|
| 2. | It is encoded by the lacY gene in the lac operon.
|
| 3. | The lugdunin genes are located on a 30-kbp operon.
|
| 4. | As in prokaryotes, genes in chloroplast DNA are organized into operons.
|
| 5. | Operon regulation can be either negative or positive by induction or repression.
|
| 6. | In lac-operon, there are three structural genes:
|
| 7. | The lactose operon is one example of an inducible system.
|
| 8. | Attenuation is a second mechanism of negative feedback in the trp operon.
|
| 9. | RNA polymerase is free to continue transcribing the entire operon.
|
| 10. | Trp operon encodes enzymes responsible for the synthesis of tryptophan.
