Q3.
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive inherited disorder that causes
severe damage to the lungs, digestive system and other organs in the body. Cystic fibrosis
affects the cells that produce mucus, sweat and digestive juices. The disease occurs when
there is a mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator
(CFTR) gene, which is the gene responsible for the movements of negatively charged
particles known as chloride ions into and out of cells.
Using the base pairing rules and the codon table, determine the mRNA and protein
sequences produced by the CFTR gene's segment (below). Transeription begins at
and includes the bold and underlined G nucleotide.
