You are studying a new strain of E. coli that can utilize the disaccharide melibiose very efficiently. You find that utilization depends on the enzyme melibiase, which is encoded by the gene Mel1. Mel1 is not expressed unless melibiose is present in the growth medium. Next you isolate a mutation, designated MelB–, which gives uninducible melibiase activity. Mapping experiments show that MelB– is linked to Mel1. Using an F' factor that carries the chromosomal region surrounding Mel1, you perform the following genetic tests:

 
Describe the proposal for the type of regulatory functions affected by the MelB– mutation.
