In the context of the lac operon in E. coli, what role does the lac repressor play?
A
B
C
D
Explanation:
The lac repressor binds to the operator region of the lac operon and inhibits transcription when lactose is not present. When lactose is available, it binds to the repressor, causing a conformational change that prevents the repressor from binding to the operator, allowing transcription.
