In Escherichia coli, the synthesis of tryptophan is controlled by the tryptophan operon that is repressed in the presence of excessive tryptophan. When a mutant strain that has lost the regulatory gene of the tryptophan operon is placed in a medium that contains all nutrients the cells need to grow except tryptophan, which of the following will occur?
