Answer the following questions using the codon chart below: 3code.gif

DNA sequence: GTT GTG CTA GGA

 

1. Original DNA: GTT GTG CTA GGA

  • Transcribe the original DNA into mRNA
  • Translate that mRNA into an amino acid sequence

2. Substitution #1: GTT GTG CTG GGA

  • Transcribe this mutated strand of DNA into mRNA
  • Translate the resulting mRNA into an amino acid sequence

3. Substitution #2: GTT GTG CTC GGA

  • Transcribe this mutated strand of DNA into mRNA
  • Translate the resulting mRNA into an amino acid sequence

4. Deletion: remove the red thymine GTT GTG CTA GGA

  • Transcribe this mutated strand of DNA into mRNA
  • Translate the resulting mRNA into an amino acid sequence
