Gene regulation governing lactose operon of E. coli that involves the lac I gene product isA. Positive and inducible because it can be induced by lactoseB. Negative and inducible because repressor protein prevents transcriptionC. Negative and repressible because repressor protein prevents transcriptionD. Feedback inhibition because excess of `Beeta-galactosidase can swich off transcription

1.	Gene regulation governing lactose operon of E. coli that involves the lac I gene product isA. Positive and inducible because it can be induced by lactoseB. Negative and inducible because repressor protein prevents transcriptionC. Negative and repressible because repressor protein prevents transcriptionD. Feedback inhibition because excess of `Beeta-galactosidase can swich off transcription
Answer» Correct Answer - B Lac I gene prodeces an inhibitor or repressor that induces negative regulation of lac operon promoter from binding to RNA operater gene and repress promoter from binding to RNA polymerase Repressor is meant to block the operator gene so that structural genes are unable to form mRNA thus, stopping the transcription of genes
