Question

Suppose that a repressor regulated the expression of the galA gene. Which of the following would be correct? Check all that apply.

a.) The repressor for the galA gene would bind to DNA in the presence of galactose.
b.) The repressor for the galA gene would not bind to DNA in the presence of galactose.
c.) The repressor for the galA gene would not bind to DNA in the absence of galactose.
d.) The repressor for the galA gene would bind to DNA in the absence of galactose.

Answer 2

The repressor works in a negative feedback fashion, it binds when the substrate of the protein the gene codes for is absent and does not bind when the substrate is present.
