This is called a frameshift mutation....
Losing one nucleotide would cause the entire framework of codons (the 3 nucleotide set that codes for the amino acids) to move off by 1 which results in likely completely different amino acids being called for when the protein is built.
In the case of CF, the normal CFTR gene which codes for Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Receptor - a membrane protein, with a point mutation would not be made properly and is therefore not placed into the membrane of the cells of the offspring - this protein is very important in moving sodium into the cell - if this is messed up it results in disease.
Note that CF can result in a number of different types of mutations to the CFTR gene...a frameshift mutation is just one way.
Answer: When the protein for a particular gene is formed, the gene is expressed
Explanation:
Gene expression is the process in which the information from a gene is used for the synthesis of protein. The gene code for protein and the protein regulate the function of the cell in the body.
into RNA by the help of enzyme RNA polymerase. The next step is the translation in which the messenger RNA is decoded in the ribosome to produce a specific amino acid or the polypeptide chain that perform a specific function in the cell.
Answer:
below
Explanation:
when an organism decays, burning fossil fuels, respiration/breathing.
These are the top three that come to my head, hope this works :)
Answer:
Prions archea, viroids bacteria, viruses protists are acellular while fungi is cellular.
While viruses have indeed been closely researched for more than a century for infections of people and animals, most viruses, particularly those that infect microorganisms, are still poorly understood.
Pathogenic RNA molecules are known as viroids. Contagious protein particles are identified as prions. Viruses are larger than that of viroids. Viroids are larger than prions in size.
Molds, wild yeasts, as well as mushrooms are examples of fungi. Numerous fungi are multicellular and also have nuclei in their cells. A protein-encased DNA or RNA core defines viruses being non - cellular organisms. Some scientists disagree with the notion that viruses are living things.
