The APsolute Recap: Biology Edition - Crafting a Gene
Description
Melanie gets poetic in Episode 69. Roses are red, violets are blue. If a promoter is blocked this may be untrue. Make sure to appropriately distinguish between genes and alleles (1:59 ). Gene expression occurs at many levels, all of which are essential in producing an organism’s phenotype (3:03 ). The episode concludes with a recap of the Lac Operon - everyone’s favorite bacterial gene expression example (6:17 ).
The Question of the Day asks (8:31 ) In the Lac Operon, is the promoter upstream or downstream from the operator?
