The bacteria have been growing in the same broth for three weeks. The DNA sequence for this protein is no shown below. Is there a mutation here? If so, what type of mutation is it? Will there be a change in the structure of the protein? Will there be a change in the function of the protein? The bacteria have been growing in the same broth for three weeks.

Solution

3. TAC AAA CGA ACG GGG CTG AAA AGG TTT TAC   

Translated protein - Y K R T G L K R F Y

To answer we need to know the sequence of the DNA that was given to you in the first question because all the other sub section cab only be answer when we compare the sequence of DNA on the first question. Please attach or send the link of first question then only answer can be given

4. TAC AAA CGA ACT GGG CTG TAA AGG TTT ATC

a. When we translate the sequence we will get the stop codon which was generate upon the mutation. Codon CTG is mutated into TGT

Translated protein - Y K R T G L Stop R F I

b. Mutation type is nonsense mutation.

c. DNA when translated into protein will be truncated as stop codon

d. yes protein might not function as the sequence that is required for its fncution is not translated due to stop codon

5. TAC AAA CGA AAC TGC TGT AAA GGT TTA TC

Translated protein - Y K R N C C K G L
