The trp operon of e. coli controls expression of five enzymes that are involved in the biosynthesis of the amino acid tryptophan. a trp repressor protein (trpr) binds to the trp operator to prevent transcription when tryptophan is present. when would the tryptophan synthesis enzymes be made if the trpr gene was mutated?

If the trpR gene is mutated, then the tryptophan synthesis enzymes would be synthetized in PRESENCE or ABSENCE of tryptophan.

An operon is a fragment of DNA containing several adjacent genes that are transcribed under the control of a single promoter.

An operator is a site in which a regulatory molecule binds into an operon and thus acts as an on/off switch for transcription.

In Escherichia coli, the trp repressor is a protein homodimer that controls transcription of the tryptophan biosynthetic pathway.

The tryptophan amino acid binds to the trp repressor, thereby changing its tridimensional conformation and converting it into its active form.

The trp repressor binds to DNA upstream of the start of transcription and thus prevents access by RNA polymerase.

In conclusion, if the trpR gene is mutated, then the tryptophan synthesis enzymes would be synthetized in PRESENCE or ABSENCE of tryptophan.

Tryptophan synthesis enzymes be made during low level of cellular tryptophan.

Explanation:

Tryptophan operon  contain 3 regulatory gene(trpR,trpP and trpO) and 5 structural genes(trpE,trpD,trpC,trpB and trpA) .trpR encodes the repressor protein that interacts with tryptophan present in the media and then the tryptophan repressor complex binds to the operator region to block the transcription of the structural genes of tryptophan operon.

   Here tryptophan acting as a corepresor.During mutation of trpR gene tryptophan biosynthesis enzymes will be synthesized only when the cellular tryptophan level remains very low.

name and explain one of the event that occurs during meiosis that increases the variation in offspring even more than simple reproduction?

it has to be understood that the sea water contains a huge amount of sodium and chlorine ions and if they enter the cell of the atlantic cod fish, the cell will shrivel and the fish will die. to avoid such a condition, the fish uses active transport for the purpose of removing the ions against the gradient.

explanation:

the atlantic cod is not a maritime osmoconformer. its native application of salts is less than that of the seawater it lives in. it is continually falling water from the gills to the ocean via osmosis.

countering that, the fish is going to be swallowing seawater. but since its internal collection of salts is lower than seawater, the fish will want to go free of excess salt, and since that's going upon a gradient, then active transport, requiring energy, must be used to pump out the salt. much marine fish use the organs to filter out the salt and these fish discharge very straight urine.
