Which type of amino acid replacement is least likely to result in the disruption of protein structure and function?

Biology

Morgarella [4.7K]2 years ago

In order to determine whether the new amino acid being replaced has distinct properties, we must first record which features of the amino acid each location possesses. At physiological pH, the side chains of some amino acids will be negatively charged, others positively charged, and yet others will be neutral.

Methionine and arginine have chemically distinct properties. While arginine is a positively charged amino acid and would presumably be facing the protein outside, methionine is a nonpolar side chain that would likely be hidden inside the protein core. The structure of a protein would likely be altered or disrupted if arginine were substituted for methionine.

2. A male rabbit with the genotype GGbb is crossed with a female rabbit with the genotype ggBb
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

- Half (8/16) of the offspring will have gray fur and black eyes.

- Half (8/16) of the offspring will have gray fur and red eyes.

- None (0/16) of the offspring will have white fur.

Explanation:

For the purposes of this question, we will assume the following notation for the involved alleles:

G: gray fur (dominant), g: white fur (recessive).

B: black eyes (dominant), b: red eyes (recessive).

A GGbb rabbit may only produce one type of gametes, namely Gb.

A ggBb rabbit may produce either gB or gb gametes.

Since not all theoretical combinations are present, the resulting Punnett square may be simplified as follows:

       |     Gb

——-+-————

gB   |   GgBb

——-+-————

gb   |   Ggbb

As seen above, 100% of the offspring will have a Gg genotype (resulting in gray fur). As for eye color, half of them will have a Bb genotype (resulting in black eyes) whereas the other half will have a bb genotype (red eyes).
