Begin is the common term: to begin knitting a sweater. Commence is a more formal word, often suggesting a more prolonged or elaborate beginning: to commence proceedings in court. Initiate implies an active and often ingenious first act in a new field: to initiate a new procedure.
Structure of the trp operon. The trp operon is an operon â a group of genes that are used, or transcribed, together â that codes for the components for production of tryptophan. The trp operon is present in many bacteria, but was first characterized in Escherichia coli.The operon is regulated so that when tryptophan is present in the environment, the genes for tryptophan synthesis are not expressed.It was an important experimental system for learning about gene regulation, and is commonly used to teach gene regulation.he trp operon is present in many bacteria, but was first characterized in Escherichia coli. The operon is regulated so that when tryptophan is present in the environment, the genes for tryptophan synthesis are not expressed.
In such cases of 'translational readthrough', translation continues until the ribosome encounters the next stop codon. The process of translation is highly regulated in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. Regulation of translation can impact the global rate of protein synthesis which is closely coupled to the metabolic and proliferative state of a cell.
