The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It may arise from the occasional transglycosylation of lactose by β-galactosidase.
- It is an inducer of the lac operon in Escherichia coli and many other enteric bacteria.
- It binds to a subunit of the tetrameric lac repressor, which results in conformational changes and reduces the binding affinity of the lac repressor to the lac operator, thereby dissociating it from the lac operator.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Allolactose article was read about 4,200 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 55 and blocks with 23: each hit it takes is cut by 9 %.
