Answer 1

Explanation:

This sequence encodes for a particular protein that helps bacteria move. A mutation occurs in the sequence, leading to a faulty protein. Identify the sequences where the mutation might have taken place.

( ) = RED

ATTTGC(ATACTACC)GGGC

The red letters are the noncoding region, and the black letters are the protein coding region.

answers are-

1. ATTAGC(ATACTAC)GGGC

2. ATTTGC(ATACTGACC)GGGC

3. ATTTGC(AATACTACC)GGGC

4. ATTTGC(AACTACC)GGGC

5. ATGAATGC(ATACTACC)GGGC
