Assignment Help Biology

Reference no: EM1396033

You have identified a strain of mutant E. coli that constitutively expresses from the lac operon. Considering that this is a mutation in a gene that encodes for a protein repressor, how would go about identifying the defective gene in the mutant strain? (For this question, genome sequencing is not an option)
