Below is a sample of a segment of DNA…(copy from left to right)

 

3’ TACAATGGGCGACGCGCTTCGTTTCAGATT 5’

 

5’ ATGTTACCCGCTGCGCGAAGCAAAGTCTAA 3’

 

 

 

1.Assume the 6th amino acid is changed from T to G on the DNA template strand.  What type of mutation is this?  What effect would this have on the protein? Look up an example for this type of mutation. 

 

2, Assume the 5th and 6th amino acids are removed from the DNA template strand.  What type of mutation is this? How would this affect the protein?  Look up an example of this type of mutation. 

 

3.Which mutation changes the protein more...a point mutation or a frameshift mutation.  Explain your reasoning. 

 

4.What would be the problem if ATT was inserted into the DNA template strand after the second codon? (Be sure to consult the coding chart for amino acids). 

 

5. What if the second amino acid was repeated over 5Ox. What amino acid is repeated? What type of mutation is this?  If this is on chromosome 4, what genetic disorder is this? Often this type of mutation does show symptoms until middle age.  What problem does this create?

 

6.What are three differences between a point mutation and deletion mutation
