| Method |
Researchers used synthetic operons to systematically examine
whether the number, length, or order of the genes in an
operon modulates gene expression. |
| Comments |
Transcription distance is the
distance between the start of a gene and the end of the operon. I.e., the greater the transcription distance, the closer the beginning of the gene is to the beginning of the operon. |
