Question

One mutation in the CFTR gene that leads to cystic fibrosis causes t re translation to end earlier in the gene sequence. Which type of mutation causes this translation error that leads to cystic fibrosis?

Answer 1

Answer: CF is caused by a mutation in the gene cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). The most common mutation, ΔF508, is a deletion (Δ signifying deletion) of three nucleotides that results in a loss of the amino acid phenylalanine (F) at the 508th position on the protein.
