Description: Transcription is initiated from the promoter trpP and progresses through the tryptophan leader (trpL) region to transcribe the five operon genes (trpE to trpA) into a polycistronic mRNA. The protein products of the operon genes catalyze successive steps of tryptophan synthesisTranscript ion is initiated from the promoter trpP and progresses through the tryptophan leader (trpL) region to transcribe the five operon genes (trpE to trpA) into a polycistronic mRNA.
