Question

During NHEJ (Non Homologous End Joining) random numbers of nucleotides can be inserted or deleted. If insertion or deletion (InDel) mutations are not a multiple of three nucleotides, ______ mutations will result in the coding region of a gene. These types of InDel mutations will most likely produce B-cells that _______________________ due to the presence of premature stop codons.

point / do not make functional antibodies

point / make functional antibodies

frame shift/ do not make functional antibodies

frame shift/ make functional antibodies

point / do not make functional antibodies

point / make functional antibodies

frame shift/ do not make functional antibodies

frame shift/ make functional antibodies

Explanation / Answer

Answer is that if the insertion or deletion are not in. A multiple of three this will change the reason frame of gene leading to frameshift mutation. Due to premature stop codons B cells will not be able to make functional antibodies.So the third option is the correct answer.
