There are five substitution mutations in the dark-colored mutant Mc1r gene. Compare the DNA sequence of the light-colored wild-type Mc1r gene with the DNA sequence of the dark-colored mutant Mc1r gene. Indicate the locations of the five mutations by changing the font color to YELLOW for the five single DNA nucleotides that are mutated in the mutant Mc1r gene table. Using the information in the introduction, determine whether each of these mutations is a silent, missense, or nonsense mutation. Using the mutant Mc1r gene data, fill in the columns (including DNA, mRNA, and amino acid) in gene table 2 that contain a silent mutation with BLUE. Likewise, fill in the columns that contain a missense mutation with RED. Shade any columns that contain nonsense mutations with GREEN. Then Of the five mutations you identified in the mutant Mc1r gene, how many are: substitutions insertions deletions (Enter a number on each line.) 2. Of the five mutations you identified in the Mc1r gene, how many are: silent missense nonsense (Enter a number on each line.)
