Use the codon table shown above to help answer this question. An original (wild-type) mRNA sequence and a mutant MRNA sequence are presented below. Choose the effect that the mutation would have on the resulting protein sequence. Wild-type fakE MRNA sequence: 5'-AUGCACGCCAAGUAG-3' Mutant allele fakE3 MRNA: 5'-AUGCACGCAUAGUAG-3' No protein would be made Single amino acid change O Multiple amino acid changes O No effect on protein
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
