Compared to a normal situation, EXPLAIN what would happen if a mutation occurred that prevented DNA ligase from functioning, but did not affect any other enzymes or proteins. Explain what occurs normally then mutation
Sri K.
A geneticist induces a mutation in a cell line growing in the laboratory. The mutation occurs in a gene that encodes a protein that binds to the poly(A) tail of eukaryotic mRNA. What will be the immediate effect of this mutation in the cultured cells?
