lac operator

Lactose operon is a gene group involved in lactose breakdown, which is composed of repressors and manipulation sequences of the lactose system, allowing a set of genes related to lactose metabolism to be synchronously regulated. In the lactose system operon of E. coli, the structural genes of β-galactosidase, galactoside permease, and galactoside transacylase are arranged on the plasmid in the order of LacZ (z), Lac Y (y), Lac A (a), respectively. The operator sequence Lac O (o) is upstream of z, and the promoter Lac P (p) is further ahead. This is the structural pattern of the operon (lactose operon). The regulatory gene Lac I (i) encoding the repressor in the lactose manipulation system is located adjacent to and upstream of p.
