摘要
Deletion mapping of the lac operon confirms the order i-p-o-z-y-a. The promoter and operator sites are substantially distinct from each other. The promoter region is shown to be essential for the expression of the lac operon; deletion of this region severely affects lac activity. The combined promoter-operator region between the i and z genes is much smaller than the average gene. © 1968.
