1.In the bacterial lac repressor, which of these occurs:
A.In the presence of glucose and the absence of lactose, the repressor is actively produced.
B.The lac operon can be hyper-induced in the presence of low glucose by the 'cAMP binding protein' (CAMP).
C.In the presence of lactose and the absence of glucose the lac operon is repressed.
D.Allolactose is a byproduct of β-galactosidase, indicating high lactose when it builds up.
2 In eukaryotes the enhancer elements can be quite a distance upstream or downstream from the promoter, and transcriptional regulation is helped by protein:protein interactions.
