d. Tryptophan operon is NOT an example of inducible operon.
Inducible operon:
- A quantifiable increase in expression in response to an enhancer, inducer, or positive regulator is known as an inducible operon.
- The primary distinction between inducible and repressible operons is that the former are turned off under typical circumstances, whilst the latter are turned on.
- The operon can be turned on or off by an inducer.
- An illustration of an inducible operon is the lac operon.
- Beta-substrate galactosidase's is lactose, which also activates the lac operon.
- Because the lac operon is typically shut off (repressed), but can be activated in the presence of the inducer allolactose, it is referred to as an inducible operon.
Tryptophan operon:
- A repressor protein that binds to two tryptophan molecules activates the trp operon.
- This repressor-tryptophan complex binds to the trp operator when tryptophan is abundant.
- The operon is not transcribed because this binding inhibits RNA polymerase from binding.
