Lipids
The heterogeneous classes of organic compounds that are not water-soluble but are dissolved in organic solvents that are non-polar in nature are termed lipids. They are a long chain of fatty acids and esters of alcohols. Lipids are generally seen in seve…
Glycerophospholipid
Glycerophospholipid is the most abundantly occuring phospholipids found in the biological membranes. Lipids include a group of organic compounds like fats, hormones, oils, waxes, vitamins etc. They are non-polar molecules and are insoluble in water. Lipi…
Structure Of Camphor
A terpene with the molecular formula of C10H16O is a waxy, white color solid known as camphor. It is flammable. It also possesses a very pungent taste and a strong odor. There are various sources for extracting camphor from natural products such as the …
Glycolipid In Organic Chemistry
Glycolipids are lipids that are an important class of organic compounds in chemistry that have simple to complex applications. They contain carbohydrates, fatty acids, sphingolipids or a glycerol group. In other words, they are the modifications of lipid…
Diterpenoid
The terpenoid class includes diterpenoids, which are chemical compounds with 20 carbon atoms. They are made up of four isoprene units and are derived from geranylgeraniol, a C20 precursor. They have a C20H32 basic structure. These characteristics disting…

Chapter 18, Problem 46CI

Thalassemia is an inherited genetic mutation that limits the production of hemoglobin. If less hemoglobin is produced, there is a shortage of red blood cells (anemia). As a result, the body does not have sufficient amounts of oxygen. In one form of thalassemia, thymine (T) is deleted from section 91 (bold) in the following segment of normal DNA: (18.4, 18.5, 18.8)

  1. Write the complementary (template) strand for this normal DNA segment.
  2. Write the mRNA sequence using the (template) strand in part a.
  3. What amino acids are placed in the beta chain using the portion of mRNA in pan b?
  4. What is the order of nucleotides after T is deleted?
  5. Write the template strand for the mutated DNA segment.
  6. Write the mRNA sequence from the mutated DNA segment using the template strand in part e.
  7. What amino acids are placed in the beta chain by the mutated DNA segment?
  8. How might the properties of this segment of the beta chain be different from the properties of the normal protein?
  9. How might the level of structure in hemoglobin be affected if beta chains are not produced?
