Lac Operon Gene Regulation Activity - Visualizing Cis and Trans Elements
Offered By: North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Visualize gene regulation of the lac operon through an engaging 21-minute video activity created by the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics. Explore both cis- and trans-acting elements that regulate the lac operon, and study single copy operon regulation or regulation in a partial diploid. Learn about materials preparation, string and rubber band attachment techniques, and various mutant types including Is, OC, and I mutants. Gain valuable insights into STEM concepts through this creative commons licensed educational resource, filmed using Google Glass technology.
