Studies conducted by Gilbert and Muller-Hill showed that after purifying its namesake repressor encoded by i,  and found that it bound to a 30 base- pair region of DNA spanning the transcription initiation site, consistent with the location of o.  In mixed environments, the catabolite gene-activator protein or CAP does not activate transcription for this until depressed glucose levels triggers the production of cyclic-AMP, which binds to the activator protein.  Encoding for a permease, a transacetylase and a beta-galactosidease in E. coli, for 10 points, name this set of three adjacently linked multigene units that include a promoter and regulator, which code for the enzymes that act sequentially in the regulation of hydrolysis of a disaccharide to glucose and galactose, identified by Jacob and Monod.
