1. Part of a gene that codes for a small protein has thefollowing base sequence: CTTACACGCGCGATTGACT.
a. What would the RNA code be after transcription? (Hint: C, G,A, U)
b. Using an RNA codon chart, what would the resulting proteinamino acid sequence be after translation? (Hint: Start and stopcodons)
c. A mutation occurs in the DNA that codes for the smallprotein. Now the sequence is
CTTACACGCTCGATTGACT. What would the RNA code be aftertranscription? (Hint: C, G, A, U)
d. Using an RNA codon chart, what would the resulting proteinamino acid sequence be after translation? (Hint: Start and stopcodons)
e. What type of mutation is this?
f. Will this mutation affect the function of the protein?
