The Discovery of the lac Operon. In 1961, Francois Jacob and Jacques Monod proposed the operon model of gene regulation in bacteria. The model was based on their study of the genes in E. coli that code for enzymes that affect the breakdown of lactose. Francois Jacob and Jacques Monod. Photo courtesy of Archive Photo. Because of the pioneering work of Jacob and Monod, the lac operon is typically used to illustrate gene regulation in bacteria.
The lac operon, an inducible operon, is a mechanism used by bacterial cells as an economical means to restrict the expression of the structural genes necessary for metabolizing lactose, a disaccharide. These structural genes break down lactose when lactose is the best carbon source available within its environs.hen glucose is present, the CRP does not bind to the promoter and expression of the lac operon remains low even if lactose is present. However, when glucose is absent, the CAP binds to the promoter region and promotes transcription. Glucose does not directly regulate the binding of CRP. A cAMP-CRP complex is entailed.
