In this state it encounters a '0' (represented by Lactose) first. In this state, the LuxR protein will be constitutively produced. The LacO (to which repressor protein remains bound in the normal state) becomes activated in presence of Lactose. However this does not lead to the expression of the reporter gene as this requires activation of the pLuxR promoter (requiring AHL). Thus the Turing Machine remains in state 'A', leaves the '0' unchanged and moves one step to the RIGHT. | In this state it encounters a '0' (represented by Lactose) first.
