Nedenfor vises nontemplat-sekvensen til de tre lac-genene lacZ, lacY og lacA. lacZ (genet for β-galaktosidase) er markert med rød farge, lacY (genet for laktose permease) med grønn farge og lacA (genet for galaktosid O-acetyltransferase) med blå farge. Hvite baser er untranslated regions. Merk hvordan en untranslated region skiller lacY fra lacZ, og lacA fra lacY.

Denne sekvensen går fra første base transkriptert fra lac-promoteren (her nummerert 1) til siste base i lacA (her nummerert 5095). 5'-enden er ved base 1, og 3'-enden er ved base 5095. Lac-operatoren nær 5'-enden er markert med fet tekst. X-aksen viser basenumre i trinn på ti og Y-aksen viser i trinn på hundre. Den komplette transkripterte sekvensen inneholder også en untranslated region etter lacA-genet (etter base 5095), denne vises ikke her (da jeg for øyeblikket ikke vet hvor lang denne untranslated region er).

Sekvensdata er hentet fra BioCyc's genom-browser med E. coli K-12 substrain MG1655 som valgt organisme, hvor sekvensens 5'-ende og 3'-ende samsvarer med basepar 366343 og 361249 i genom-browseren. Starten og slutten av de tre lac-genene er som vist i genom-browseren.
