Main Points of the Paper
- The lac operator does not lie in the same region in which oo mutants are found.
Materials and Methods Used
- Mutant Classes
- oc mutants
- lost the sensitivity to repressor, therefore expressing β-galactosidase constitutively in the presence of the repressor
- very closely linked to z- mutations mapped at the beginning of the z gene
- oo mutants
- shuts off the production of all 3 enzymic activities of the lac operon
- oc mutants
- Selection of z-y+ revertants on melibiose-agar
