Determination of trpL mRNA stem loop

Description
(a) In tryptophan abundance, the 3–4 (termination) stem loop terminates transcription after the poly-U string. (b) In tryptophan starvation, the 2–3 (antitermination) stem loop leads to polycistronic mRNA synthesis(a) In tryptophan abundance, the 3–4 (termination) stem loop terminates transcription after the poly-U string. (b) In tryptophan starvation, the 2–3 (antitermination) stem loop leads to polycistronic mRNA synthesis

(a) Tryptophan abundance: Termination ‘uunununnt—nth Region 4 Ribosome completes translation of trpL coding sequence and occupies regions 1 and 2. Regions 3 and 4 pair, and transcription terminates.
