Question
**Mutation and Protein Analysis Problems** 1. Geneticists interested in human hemoglobins have found a very large number of mutations. Some of these mutant proteins are of normal size, while others are short due to deletions or nonsense mutations. The first example, often named Hb Constant Spring, is where the globin has several extra amino acids attached at the C-terminal end. What is a plausible explanation for its origin? Is it likely that Hb Constant Spring arose from failure to splice out an intron? Name: [Student's Name]
