You are investigating a new bacterial operon that contains five regions (a, b, c, d and e) involved in coordinated regulation of transcription. one is the gene for a regulatory protein, one is the binding site for the regulatory protein, two produce structural enzymes (enzyme 1 and enzyme 2), and one is the promoter for the two enzyme genes. the table below shows data collected for five different bacterial strains. a "+" indicates that the structural enzyme is produced and a "-" indicates that the enzyme is not produced. the "signal" is a molecule that either represses or induces the operon. use the information to determine how the operon is regulated, and the identity of each region. strain enzyme 1 enzyme 1 enzyme 2 enzyme 2 -signal +signal -signal +signal a+b+c+d+e+ + - + - a-b+c+d+e+ - - - -a+b-c+d+e+ + + + +a+b+c-d+e+ + - - -a+b+c+d-e+ + + + +a+b+c+d+e- - - + -part emutations in region b and region d give the same results - when either of these regions is mutated, the operon is expressed under all conditions (called constitutive expression).you hypothesize that region b is the operator region and that region d is the repressor protein. to test your hypothesis, you create two partial diploid lines by introducing a f' plasmid with a wild-type lac operon: strain 1: f' a+ b+ c+ d+ e+ / a+ b- c+ d+ e+strain 2: f' a+ b+ c+ d+ e+ / a+ b+ c+ d- e+what experimental results would be predicted by your hypothesis? complete this table with the expected results by dragging the "+" and "-" signs to the appropriate locations.

Mouse liver cells were homogenized and the homogenate subjected to equilibrium density-gradient centrifugation with sucrose gradients. fractions obtained from these gradients were assayed for marker molecules (i.e., molecules that are limited to specific organelles). the results of these assays are shown in the figure. the marker molecules have the following functions: cytochrome oxidase is an enzyme involved in the process by which atp is formed in the complete aerobic degradation of glucose or fatty acids; ribosomal rna forms part of the protein-synthesizing ribosomes; catalase catalyzes decomposition of hydrogen peroxide; acid phosphatase hydrolysis monophosphoric esters at acid ph; cytidylyltransferase is involved in phospholipid biosynthesis; and amino acid permease aids in transport of amino acids across membranes. a) name the marker molecule and give the number of the fraction that is most enriched for each of the following cell components: lysosomes; peroxisomes; mitochondria; plasma membrane; rough endoplasmic reticulum; smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
