Catabolite
Repression
Regulation
Specific Regulation: mediated by availability of
substrate called effector (or inducer) e.g.
lactose (allolactose) through its interaction with a
regulatory protein.
General Regulation: e.g. catabolite repression
analogous to repression in that endproduct
effector (catabolite co-repressor) prevents gene
expression, often by interacting with a regulatory
protein, but may use second messenger system
e.g. cAMP.
