Mutation analysis problem
Consider a gene for which there are several known mutants. The normal mRNA transcript and each mutant transcript are listed below. Mutations are indicated in bold and underlined
. 1.
Use your codon table to translate the transcripts into amino acid sequences. 2.
Classify the type of mutation: missense, nonsense, silent, or frameshift
3.
Predict whether the mutation would likely alter the structure (and therefore function) of the protein. mRNA transcript

RNA Transcription, Translation, and Mutation
Worksheet
First, here is a strand of DNA. This strand contains both a gene and its promoter region. Circle
the promoter region in blue, draw a yellow box around the TATA box, draw a green box around
the start codon, and draw a red box around the stop codon:
TATATATATTACGTTGCATACGCTCAACGGTCGAAACTGCATGGGCAC
ATATATATAATGCAACGTATGCGAGTTGCCAGCTTTGACGTACCCG
Now imagine this gene has been transcribed into RNA. What would that RNA strand look like?
Before the above RNA strand can be translated, a few modifications must first take place (in
eukaryotes). What are they?

2)
3)
Using a codon chart of your choice (one can be found here, or here) translate the above RNA
transcript (assume no splicing took place). Write the three letter abbreviations for the amino
acids in the image below:

Instructions: Express your own gene! (1) Make up a DNA sequence of at least 18nucleotides and then (2) show the mRNA sequence that will be made via transcription,(3) show the tRNAs that will base pair and deliver the amino acids, and (4) the aminoacid sequence of the resulting protein. You can use the single letter abbreviations forDNA and RNA nucleotides and the three-letter abbreviations for the amino acids.

Question
: The peptide bond : (Indicate the right answer) :
A- Is a hydrophobic bond.
B- Is formed by condensation between the -NH2 function of the first amino acid (AA N° 1) and
the -COOH function of the second amino acid (AA N° 2).

Instructions
Using the Concord Consortium interactive, observe how mutations can affect protein
formation and function. From your observations of the interactive, summarize your
observations of how each change in DNA affects the protein that is made.
Screenshots will be required for your assignment. Interpret and analyse your results:
identify the type of mutation, and describe and explain the effect of each change on
protein size, shape and polarity.
Create two different mutation types and observe the different outcomes.

Problem B. DNA: Codon SegmentingThe way that DNA is often interpreted as genes is in groups of three nucleotides at a time, called “codons.” Thus, the DNA strand
dna_str = 'agctttcattctgac'
Can be broken into codons in the following three ways:
agc ttt cat tct gac a gct ttc att ctg ac ag ctt tca ttc tga c
# reading frame 0 # reading frame 1 # reading frame 2
Notice that in these lines, we start reading codons at string indexes 0, 1 and 2. The three different start indices are known as reading frames, and are called reading frame 0, reading frame 1 and reading frame 2, respectively. It is not always clear which of these frames will be read by genetic transcription mechanisms, so it is often useful to be able to be flexible and consider any of them when working with DNA strands.
Write a function segment that takes as an input a string containing a DNA strand, and a reading frame (0, 1 or 2) to use. The function should return a list containing the sequence of individual codons.

Part II: Information Transfer
Background Information - Key Points
The background information provided for this lab has given you a general overview of some of 24
the key terms and definitions necessary to understand the transfer of information from gene to
protein. The information included below will help you work through the specific problems
included in your Tutorial 4 Assignment. When working on the problems remember the base mu to
pairing rules (Table 3).

Questions and situational problems
I. A particular gene codes for a mature mRNA containing 900 bases, which is
translated into a 40 kDa protein. A mutant form of the gene created by a single
point mutation yields an 830-base mature mRNA yielding a 37 kDa protein with
modified enzymatic activity. The analysis shows that the mutation has resulted
in a 22 amino acid deletion within the protein. What is the most likely effect of
the mutation? Explain.
