Question
can someone help and explain the type of mutations for DNa mutation 1-3 and the what happen whether it is insertion or deletion etc
Explanation / Answer
Ans. #1. Original Sequence:
Complementary DNA: ATAATGGGTGTTATTTAATGATGAGGG
Template DNA: TATTACCCACAATAAATTACTACTCCC
mRNA: AUAAUGGGUGUUAUUUAAUGAUGAGGG
AA Sequence: Ile-Met-Gly-Val-Ile-*STOP*
# Mutation 1:
Complementary DNA: ATAATTGGTGTTATTTAATGATGAGGG
Template DNA: TATTAACCACAATAAATTACTACTCCC
mRNA: AUAAUUGGUGUUAUUUAAUGAUGAGGG
AA Sequence: Ile-Ile-Gly-Val-Ile-*STOP*
Type of mutation: Missense mutation
# The point mutation that changes amino acid sequence is called a Missense Mutation (compared to original sequence).
# Mutation 2:
Complementary DNA: ATAATGGGTGTTATTAATGATGAGGGG
Template DNA: TATTACCCACAATAATTACTACTCCCC
mRNA: AUAAUGGGUGUUAUUAAUGAUGAGGGG
AA Sequence: Ile-Met-Gly-Val-Ile-Asn-Asp-Glu-Gly
Type of mutation: Nonstop mutation
# A mutation that converts a STOP codon into an amino acid codon is called a nonstop mutation.
# Mutation 3:
Complementary DNA: ATAATGGGTGTTATTTAATGAGGGTGA
Template DNA: TATTACCCACAATAAATTACTCCCACT
mRNA: AUAAUGGGUGUUAUUUAAUGAGGGUGA
AA Sequence: Ile-Met-Gly-Val-Ile-*STOP*
Type of mutation: Silent mutation
# The point mutation that does not change amino acid sequence is called a Silent Mutation. Silent point mutation arise due to substitution of one base with another base AND the mutated codon codes the same amino acid as wild type. It does not affect the amino acid sequence of resultant proteins.
