The repressor protein is encoded by _________________

The repressor protein is encoded by _________________ Correct Answer regulatory gene

The repressor proteins control the transcription of genes located downstream of the operator regions. The repressor protein is encoded by the regulatory gene which is present downstream of the structural genes.

Consider the following statements and choose the correct answer:
1. The structural genes direct the synthesis of cellular proteins through messenger RNA (mRNA)
2. The promoter gene determines whether or not the structural genes are to be repressed by the repressor
3. The regulator gene directs the synthesis of a protein which may be an active repressor or an inactive repressor
Phytase, an enzyme produced by Aspergillus niger can be adsorbed on microcrystalline cellulose powder (MCCP). The adsorption follows a Langmuir isotherm and the maximum concentration of the protein that can be obtained on the adsorbent is 70 mg cm-1. At a concentration of 50 mg L-1 of protein in the solution, the concentration of protein on the adsorbent reaches 35 mg cm-1. It is desired to recover 90% of the protein from 1.5 liter of the cell free culture filtrate containing 220 mg L-1 protein by addition of MCCP to the solution. The concentration of the protein adsorbed on the solid at equilibrium will be:
Tetracycline binding repressor protein when fused to transcription activator protein from herpes simple virus, then it is called as transactivator protein (tTA).
Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer :

Statements : About 50 per cent of the animal by-products - hair, skin, horns etc. is edible protein. American chemists have developed a method of isolating 45 per cent of this protein. They used an enzyme developed in Japan to break down soya protein.

Conclusions :
I. Americans have not been able to develop enzymes.
II. Animal by-products protein has the same composition as soya protein.
