An operon is a cluster of genes that are under the control of the corresponding (to those genes) promoters and are, therefore, co-transcribed as a polycistronic mRNA.

True or False?

Solution

False,
This is so because, the operon is co-transcribed as a monocistronic mRNA in eukaryotic cells.

Polycistronic mRNA co-transcription occurs in bacterial cells.
