Question
Chapter 12, Problem 70RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The process in mRNA folding that causes the sensitivity in pain due to an effect on the COMT gene.
Concept Introduction:
A silent mutation is caused by secondary structures of mRNA. The books depict mRNA as a linear molecule for simplicity but in mRNA may fold up into many different structures changing any
