Question

The trp operon is a repressible operon found in prokaryotes The operator sequence in a specific bacterial cell contains a mutation that stops the repressor protein from binding to the operator Which of the following correctly identifies how the mutation described would affect the transcription of the trp operon A B C D Tryptophan will bind to the repressor to activate the repressor but the repressor will be unable to bind to the operator so transcription will occur Tryptophan will bind to the repressor to inactivate the repressor so the repressor can not bind to the operator Tryptophan will bind to the repressor to inactivate the repressor but due to the muta tion the repressor will still be able to bind to the operator Tryptophan will bind to the repressor to activate the repressor and the repressor will
