The sickle form of the hemoglobin gene is created when an adenine nucleotide is changed to a thymine. ... That single amino acid replacement in the -globin protein alters the shape and the chemistry of the hemoglobin molecule, causing it to polymerize and distort the red blood cell into the sickle shape.
Ans.
The codons show genetic codes, made up of triplet of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that code for specific amino acids. The different codes can code for a same a amino acid. When a substitutional mutation occurs in genetic material, it shows substitution of one nucleotide pair for another and leads to formation of a different codon.
The first mutation that leads to CAU to CAC, it will not show any potential damage as both CAU and CAC codons code for histidine amino acid.
The second mutation that leads to UGU to UGC will also not show any damage to protein as both of these codons code for cysteine amino acid.
The third codon, that results UCU to UUU will cause a potential damage to protein as UUU codes for phenyl alanine (an aromatic, non-polar amino acid) and UCU codes for serine (a polar amino acid).
Thus, the correct answer is 'option C).' as in a protein, substitution of serine with phenylalanine will lead to change in structure and function of that protein.
The measles virus and rubella virus are two separate viruses. They have different DNA and RNA structures, and the vaccination for the measles virus only "knows" how to attach itself to measles and destroy the virus. It doesn't know how to attach itself to the rubella virus to destroy it, as the vaccination is needed to inform it how to.
The advantage of vaccinating a large amount of the population is that it reduces the chance someone will catch sickness by a great amount, and can possibly eradicate the virus.
