5. Hypothetically speaking, a particular protein named GOTEAM is 1,000 amino acids and is known to be involved in the phenotype, "avid football fan." Some individuals have been genotyped and were found to have a deletion of 2 nucleotides near the 5' end of the GOTEAM gene. Other individuals have been found to have a deletion of 99 bases in the same region. A. What is the length of GOTEAM gene? B. Which if these changes will have a worse effect on the protein and why?
