Lac operon

  • Lac refers to lactose in lac operon.
  • The lac operon consists of one regulatory gene the i gene which codes for the repressor of the lac operon and three structural genes (z, y, and a).
  • The z gene codes for beta-galactosidase (β-gal), which hydrolyses disaccharide, lactose into galactose and glucose.
  • The y gene codes for permease, which increases permeability of the cell to β-galactosides.
  • The a gene encodes a transacetylase.
  • Lactose is termed as inducer as lactose is the substrate for the enzyme beta-galactosidase and it regulates switching on and off of the operon.
