Definitions:

Inducible Operon

An operon that is normally inactive because a repressor molecule is attached to its operator; transcription is activated when an inducer binds to the repressor, making it incapable of binding to the operator. Compare with repressible operon.

Inducer Molecule

A substance that initiates the expression of genes by interacting with a repressor or an activator.

Active Repressor

A molecular form of a repressor protein that can bind to specific regions of DNA and inhibit gene transcription.

Transcriptional Activity

The process of copying a segment of DNA into RNA by the enzyme RNA polymerase, crucial in gene expression.
