- a. Write the amino-acid sequence that would be produced from this mRNA.
- b. Write the amino-acid sequence if a mutation changes UCA to ACA. Is this likely to affect protein function?
- c. Write the amino-acid sequence if a mutation changes CGG to GGG. Is this likely to affect protein function?
- d. What happens to protein synthesis if a mutation changes UCA to UAA?
- e. What happens to the protein sequence if an A is added to the beginning of the chain and the sequence changes to 5′GAC|AUC|ACG|GGU3′?
- f. What happens to the protein sequence if the C is removed from the beginning of the chain and the sequence changes to 5′CAU|CAC|GGG3′?
