Operons can be usesd to jointly coordinate expression of multiple proteins in prokaryotes. Briefly explain in 2-3 sentences how operons function.

Operons can be used to coordinate the expression of multiple proteins in combination in the prokaryotes. An operon is a fundamental unit of DNA that transcribes, translates, or splices an array of genes under the guidance of a single operator and promoter.

The expression of genes can take place in combination or not at all. The regulation of operon can either be positive or negative due to repression or induction.
