Gene regulationmRNAProteinProper functioning of any cell depends on gene regulation. Lac operon plays a major role in regulating the cell metabolism in bacterial genes. The lac genetic switch exhibits significan
Figure 1. Scheme of the lac operon structure. In front of the lacZ gene is the promoter whose expression is modulated by the LacI repressor and the catabolite activator protein (CAP, also known as cAMP receptor protein (CRP)). Expression of this operon is activated only when lactose levels ...
Control of the lac operon with isopropyl 尾-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) has been used to regulate gene expression in Escherichia coli for countless applications, including metabolic engineering and recombinant protein production. However, optogenetics offers unique capabilities, such as easy ...
