11. You are working with the bacterium E. coli. You have identified a single mutation (a change in the DNA sequence) which, by itself, completely prevents the transcription of four specific genes. Transcription of all other genes, except these 4, is normal. These four genes are known to be transcribed together in an operon
The mutation is a deletion of ten nucleotides from the DNA, much smaller than any one of the four genes. Draw a diagram of those four genes in the E. coli genome, including their promoter and terminator sequences,

So pretty much draw a diagram of a polycistronic operon

promoter gene 1 gene 2 gene 3 gene 4 terminator

aaronq · Answer

the deletion would occur in the promoter
