Question 4: Explain how a deletion mutation leading to a modification of the 3' untranslated region (UTR) on the CACNA1S mRNA could lead to hypokalemic periodic paralysis without changing the structure of the polypeptide formed? (Note this is not the known cause of hypoKPP, but it makes a good question)
