Title: Investigation of Induction Time of lac operon in E. Coli with IPTG‚ and Comparision of the Amount Beta-galactosidase produced with Lactose‚ IPTG and Antibiotic. Abstract: Introduction: An operon is a group of genes that are arranged side by side with a regulatory gene. It also includes a promoter gene‚ operator gene‚ structural genes. Regulatory genes control transcription with positive or negative signal. (Jacob‚ and Monod‚ 1961) A positive signal‚ inducer‚ would stimulate

digestive enzyme found in the intestines of mammals. Beta-galactosidase is an enzyme that initiates the breakdown of the substrate lactose. Lactose is a disaccharide sugar found in milk. It is composed of two rings. The rings contain 5 carbon atoms and an oxygen atom. Attached to the carbon atoms are a hydrogen atom and an OH group or another carbon. The rings are bound together by an oxygen bridge. This bridge can be broken when the enzyme Beta-galactosidase binds to lactose and a water molecule
