Many times (at least several times a week) I would feel a lot of air in my stomach - mostly after eating or drinking soda or whatever. It was okay for a while, but I didn't think it was normal for me to produce that much gas in my stomach and for me to be unable to burp.
In molecular genetics, a repressor is a DNA-or RNA-binding protein that inhibits the expression of one or more genes by binding to the operator or associated silencers.
The lac repressor is a protein that represses (inhibits) transcription of the lac operon. It does this by binding to the operator, which partially overlaps with the promoter. When bound, the lac repressor gets in RNA polymerase's way and keeps it from transcribing the operon.
