Exam 3 is scheduled for Wednesday, March 28. Ensure you review Lectures 19-25 and Key Terms #7-9 (cancer lecture materials will be posted later today). Homework 6-7 will be included in the exam (note: Homework 5 will not). The exam format will be similar to previous assessments in BIO 304. Key topics include the lac operon, types of enzymes (inducible, constitutive, repressible), and gene regulation mechanisms. Be prepared to analyze genetic scenarios for E. Coli in relation to lactose presence.
