lacZ = b-galactosidase

lacY = galactoside permease

lacA = galactoside transacetylase

All 3 genes are transcribed together producing 1 mRNA, a polycistronic message

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization

The lacA gene encodes thiogalactoside transacetylase, which rids the cell of toxic thiogalactosides that also get transported by lacY.

There are 4 genes (I, Z, Y, A), 2 Promoters and 3 lac operators in Lac operon

The major O1 lac operator lies adjacent to promoter

Two auxiliary O2 and O3 lac operators 

All three operators are required for optimum repression

The O1 operator extends from position -5 just upstream of the mRNA start point to position +21 within the transcription unit.
