1. The first mutation you will model is the DELETION mutation. Look at the original strand and delete the seventh,
eighth ninth and tenth nucleotides.
Original GENE sequence:
TAC GCG TTA ACA CGC CGC GCA GCA ATA ATC
Rewrite the MUTATED sequence:
Transcribe into mRNA:
Translate into Amino Acids:
How did the mutated gene change from the original strand of DNA? How was the polypeptide chain affected?
