A. The team compares the sequence of the gene from the patient with three other patients the team has had with the same symptoms; the mutations for each patient in the table attached. What is the amino acid change in the enzyme from the patient (reference the genetic code)? What amino acid changes are associated with the enzymes from the other three patients? B. How would each of these amino acid changes (from the previous question) would lead to non-functional enzymes?

Question

A team attempts to isolate the gene coding for a defective enzyme. The gene sequence is shown in the table attached; the number at the end of the row is the numerical position of the last base in that row, so the 60th position has a “G”.
