Text | Positive Control mechanisms act by allowing gene products to be produced only when they are needed in a way analogous to competitive inhibition with the inhibitor being the repressor, the enzyme being the operator, and the substrate being the inducer... kind of Negative Control mechanisms act by coding gene products until the final product becomes abundant enough to act as a corepressor, thereby activating the regulator gene and shutting down transcription |
