-Once a gene (such as $gal1$) has been identified as being inducible under certain conditions (in this case by the addition of galactose), we can begin to dissect its regulatory mechanism by isolating mutants that defective in the regulatory process, i.e., mutants that constitutively express the $GAL$ genes even in the absence of galactose, and mutants that have lost the ability to induce the $GAL$ genes in the presence of galactose. If we were studying galactose regulation today, we would probably use a $lacZ$ reporter system similar to what we discussed in [[chapter_12|Chap. 12]].
