Catabolite Activator Protein Cap Assists Lac Operon Binding

Catabolite activator protein or CAP assists the lac operon by binding to cAMP, which induces a conformational change that allows it to bind the promoter region of the operon, further increasing transcription of lactase.

Η πρωτεΐνη ενεργοποιητής της καταβολίτης ή CAP βοηθά το οπερόνιο lac δεσμευόμενη σε cAMP, το οποίο προκαλεί μια διαμορφωτική αλλαγή που της επιτρέπει να δεσμευτεί στην περιοχή προαγωγέα του οπερονίου, αυξάνοντας περαιτέρω τη μεταγραφή της λακτάσης.
