Prokaryotic genes are polycistronic, i.e, each gene may code for more than one polypeptide and are under one promoter and one operator.

Prokaryotic genes produce polycistronic mRNAs.

These mRNAs code for more than one protein.

Since the genome of prokaryotes is much lesser than that of prokaryotes, its essential for a single mRNA to produce several proteins.
