The direction of DNA replication is from :
amino acid end
3' end towards 5' end
5' end towards 3' end
amino terminus to carboxy terminus
In operon concept, regulator gene functions as:
repressor
regulator
inhibitor
initiator
A.
repressor
Operon is defined as a set of genes transcribed under the control of an operator gene. It is a segment of DNA containing adjacent genes including structural genes, an operator gene, and a regulatory gene. An operon is thus a functional unit of transcription and genetic regulation. In operon model, regulator gene directs the synthesis of proteins. It may be an active repressor or an inactive repressor.
