Give the protein that is translated from this section of DNA. Use the single letter abbriviations for amino acids with no spaces. N- [ ]-c Determine the molecular basis for each mutation and what effect there would be on the protein. Mutation Molecular Basis Effect on Protein

Explanation / Answer

N-Met G E V L-C

A= synonymous (silent mutation)= no change in function

B=N-Met G E V-C (Nonsynonymous,nonsense mutation)= cause truncated protein

C=Met G E V L E (Nonsynonymous, missence mutation)= cause change in protein structure without stop codon
