Exercise 7
In the artificial Pb operon described in the previous problem, you decide also to design a different regulatory system, which in this particular case may work better than negative regulation.
(a) Design and describe a simple regulatory system for the Pb operon that employs positive regulation of transcription.
(b) Describe a mutation in the regulatory system in (a) that would result in a recessive phenotype. Would the Pb operon be inducible or constitutive?
(c) Describe a mutation in the system in (a) that would result in a dominant phenotype. Would the Pb operon be inducible or constitutive?
