"Tryptophan self-controls its synthesis." Justify this statement.

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

a.If a lesser amount of Tryptophan is present in a cell, Tryptophan acts as an inducer and binds to a repressor, leading to the synthesis of enzymes required for its production and thus its synthesis. b.If an excess amount of Tryptophan is present in a cell, Tryptophan acts as a promoter, preventing the further synthesis of necessary enzymes for its production and thus its synthesis. c.If an excess amount of Tryptophan is present in a cell, Tryptophan acts as a co- repressor, preventing the further synthesis of necessary enzymes for its production and thus its synthesis.

@tesa12345

OpenStudy (tesa12345):

to be honest. i have no idea on this one../:

OpenStudy (shreehari499):

Ha Ha..Ok I'll tell you.. the answer is C here...because tryptophan interacts with the repressor protein such that it can bind to the operator... so if an excess amount of Tryptophan is present in a cell, Tryptophan acts as a co-repressor, preventing the further synthesis of necessary enzymes for its production and its synthesis...
