The original codons code for Leucine and Glutamic acid. The mutated codons code for Valine and Glutamine.
<h3>Genetic codes and amino acids</h3>
Each of the genetic codes. otherwise known as codons, translates to an amino acid.
Following the table of genetic codes with their respective amino acids:
- CTC (CUC) codes for Leucine
- GAG codes for Glutamic acid
- GTC (GUC)codes for Valine
- CAG codes for Glutamine
Thus, the glutamic acid in the original codon has been replaced with glutamine in the mutated codon while Leucine has been replaced with Valine.
