Chapter 19, Problem 19.4PS
Summary Introduction

To determine: The original amino acid if in a gene there are three missense mutations affecting the same gene. The first mutations result in the substitution of arginine (Arg), the second results in the substitution of tyrosine (Tyr) and third results in the substitution of glutamine (Gln).

Introduction: Missense mutation is the type of mutation that is caused due substitution of one amino acid with the other. A change of a single nucleotide results in a different amino acid coding.

Good afternoon, Guidance with this question would be most appriciated. Thank you for your time.  Polypeptide sequences are formed from 20 amino acids. What is the probability that a single point mutation in a gene will result in a different polypeptide sequence?
