Below is a normal piece of double stranded DNA Determine the

Below is a normal piece of double stranded DNA. Determine the sequence of amino acids that this DNA codes for. Normal DNA 5\'ATGCCCCGCATACCATAA3\' 3\'TACGGGGCGTATGGTATT5\' Below you are given a strand of DNA that is similar to the normal DNA above, but each piece of DNA includes 1 point mutation. For each piece of mutated DNA, determine what type of mutation has occurred (a list of mutations is given below) and explain why it is this type of mutation.

Solution

DNA . 5\' ATG CCC CGC ATA CCA TAA 3\'

3\' TAG GGG GCG TAT GGT ATT 5\'

RNA 5\' AUG CCC. CG C. AUA CC A. TAA 3

tRNA . 3\' UAC. GGG GCG UAU GUU AUU 5\'

Protein tyrosine , glycine, alanine, tyrosine, glycine, isoleucine respectively

It was missense mutation because only one amino acid is changed Answer c is correct
