The lac operon in the bacterium Escherichia coli functions by a repression mechanism in which an inhibitor protein (lacI) binds to regulatory sites (lacO) in the promoter and turns off transcription.

The basic function of the lac operon is to use the group of genes, and they are helpful to encode the protein.
