Concept and Structure of Operon Mode in Gene Regulation

Read this article to learn about the concept and structure of operon mode in gene regulation. Jacob and Monod (1961) gave the concept of Operon model to explain the gene regulation in prokaryotes using simple experiments to grow E. coli in petriplates containing histidine, lactose or lactose and glucose in the medium (Fig. 9.2). When histidine is present in the [...]
