Question

Sapling Learning macmillan learing Use the mutations interactive to determine which of the following are nonsense mutations. Consider the adenine of the start codon to be position +1. ? the T nucleotide is deleted at position +8 in the antisense strand a transition at position +6 in the sense strand of the histidine codon Ia substitution of C to A in the the antisense strand of the alanine codon ? substitutions of T to A at position +10 and G to T at position +11 in the antisense strand a C nucleotide insertion between positions +12 and +13 in the sense strand ? a transition from G to A in the sense strand of the tryptophan codon

Explanation / Answer

In option 4 the new codon will be UAG, which is a nonsense codon.

In option 6 the new codon will be UAA. which is also a nonsense codon.

So the answer is option 4 and 6.
