Codes for permease

Vedclass · Answer

(D) In the $lac$ operon,there are three structural genes: $lacZ$,$lacY$,and $lacA$.$1$. The $lacZ$ gene codes for $\beta$-galactosidase,which is responsible for the hydrolysis of lactose into glucose and galactose.$2$. The $lacY$ gene codes for permease,which increases the permeability of the cell to $\beta$-galactosides like lactose.$3$. The $lacA$ gene codes for transacetylase.Therefore,the $Y$ gene is responsible for coding for permease.
