1. Which of the following is not true regarding operons? a.they encode for mRNA that contains coding sequence for two or more species b.they have one stop codon c.they have one promoter d.they coordinately regulate a group of genes then encode proteins with a common functional goal e.they have a single transcription sequence 2. Anabolic pathways that involve the synthesis of molecule such as tryptophan are usually regulated by a.end products of the pathways b.substrates ( or related compound) of an enzyme in the pathway c.methylation patterns d.inducers e.nucleosomes Solution 1. Answer A i.e they encode for mRNA that contains coding sequence for two or more species. An operon consists of a promoter and has stop codon to end translation and it is a cluster of genes with a common functional goal and is considered as one transcription unit. 2. Anabolic pathways synthesis is regulated by end products of the pathways. Such a regulation is called negative regulation where tryptophan itself regulated synthesis of enzymes by acting as a corepressor. Answer 2: A end products of the pathways.
