19. Predict the effect of a mutation that would alter the Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence T / F Initiation of translation would probably be affected T / F Elongation of translation would be faster since ribosome will no longer stall at the SD sequence T / F mRNA levels maybe lower T / F replication would not be affected T / F RNA polymerase would not bind as efficiently
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
