Chapter 16.3, Problem 27AQP

a.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect of mutations in transcription, when a mutation prevents the binding of the ribosome to the ${\text{5}}^{\prime }$ end of the $\text{mRNA}$ ${\text{5}}^{\prime }$ UTR.

b.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect of mutations in transcription, when a mutation changes the Trp codons in region 1 of the $\text{mRNA}$ ${\text{5}}^{\prime }$ UTR into codons for alanine.

c.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect of mutations in transcription, when a mutation that creates a stop codon early in region 1 of the $\text{mRNA}$ ${\text{5}}^{\prime }$ UTR.

d.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect of mutations in transcription, if region 2 of the $\text{mRNA}$ get deleted.

e.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect of mutations in transcription, if region 3 of the $\text{mRNA}$ get deleted.

f.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect of mutations in transcription, if region 4 of the $\text{mRNA}$ get deleted.

g.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect of mutations in transcription, if string of adenine nucleotides that follows region 4 in the ${\text{5}}^{\prime }$ UTR gets deleted.
