Textbook Question
Chapter 16, Problem 9TYU
MAKE CONNECTIONS Although the proteins that cause the E. coli chromosome to coil are not histones, what property would you expect them to share with histones, given their ability to bind to DNA (see Figure 5.14)?

Draw the potential tautomers of Cytosine.
. The genetic code is thought to have evolved to maximize genetic stability
by minimizing the effect on protein function of most substitution muta-
tions (single-base changes). We will use the six arginine codons to test this
idea. Consider all of the substitutions that could affect all of the six arginine
codons.
(a) How many total mutations are possible?
(b) How many of these mutations are "silent," in the sense that the mutant
codon is changed to another Arg codon?
(c) How many of these mutations are conservative, in the sense that an Arg
codon is changed to a functionally similar Lys codon?
