In molecular biology, an inducer is a molecule that regulates gene expression. [1] An inducer functions in two ways; namely: By disabling repressors. The gene is expressed because an inducer binds to the repressor. The binding of the inducer to the repressor prevents the repressor from binding to the operator.
An inducer designed for testing in water tunnels. An inducer is the axial inlet portion of a centrifugal pump rotor, the function of which is to raise the inlet head by an amount sufficient to prevent significant cavitation in the following pump stage. [1]
In a ferromagnetic core inductor, when the magnetic field approaches the level at which the core saturates, the inductance will begin to change, it will be a function of the current (). Neglecting losses, the energy W {\displaystyle W} stored by an inductor with a current I 0 {\displaystyle I_{0}} passing through it is equal to the amount of ...
The inducer can remove this repressor, turning genes back on. The operator is a section of DNA where the repressor binds to shut off certain genes; the promoter is the section of DNA where the RNA polymerase binds.
The lacI gene codes for a protein called "the repressor" or "the lac repressor", which functions to repressor of the lac operon. [2] The gene lacI is situated immediately upstream of lacZYA but is transcribed from a lacI promoter. [2] The lacI gene synthesizes LacI repressor protein.
IPTG is an effective inducer of protein expression in the concentration range of 100 μmol/L to 3.0 mmol/L. Typically, a sterile, filtered 1 mol/L solution of IPTG is added 1:1000 to an exponentially growing bacterial culture, to give a final concentration of 1 mmol/L.
To stimulate this process, the inducer IPTG can be added to the system. IPTG is a reagent which mimics the structure of allolactose , and can therefore bind to the lac repressor and prevent it from inhibiting gene expression.
