Using the mutated DNA template create the mRNA. 2. Create your amino acid sequence from the mRNA created in question 1. 3. Highlight on the DNA where the mutation happened. 4. What type of mutation has occurred? To help with this question use the amino acid sequence produced in the protein synthesis in the previous practice problem for comparision. 5. Will this mutation still create a functional protein? Why or why not?

Step 1

The mutated DNA template is: 3’ CGG ATA TAC CGG TTA GCG TGG AGC ATC GGG GGG GCG CCC 5’ Therefore, the mRNA sequence would be: 5’ GCC UAU AUG GCC AAU CGC UGG AGC UAG CCC CCC CGC GGG 3’ ** Show more…
