Allosteric Regulation!!
Regulation of RNA polymerase
Transcriptional Activator: Recruit RNA polymerase to a promotoer: ON!
Transcriptional Repressor: Block RNA polymerase: OFF!

Lactose (

Lactose (
) is high
bacteria
Allosteric Regulation! Bacteria will induce multiple genes which take advantage
of lactose as a food source
physical location
on gene has
significance
Has a operator (DNA binding site) which regulates access of RNA pol to gene
ALL genes are clustered together so that a single mRNA is made
Within the single mRNA are start and stop codons for each protein to be made
Operator:
Controls RNA Pol access to gene!!
