#Unit 2. Cellular Organization

N protein prevents termination in the early operons of lambda and it works together with the products of the bacterial genes nusA, nusB, nusE, and nusG.

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization

N binds to RNA transcribed from DNA containing a nut sequence. Thus, once RNA polymerase has passed a nut site, N binds to the RNA and from there is loaded on to the polymerase itself. In this state, the polymerase is resistant to the terminators found just beyond the N and cro genes.

The E. coli trp operon contains the 5 genes Trp-EDCBA for the anabolic enzymes to make the tryptophan.

Trp operon is negatively regulated by two ways

1. Repression

2. Attenuation

Why is this extra control of two layers on trp operon needed?
