The answer is; deletion mutation


This type of mutation mostly causes a phenomenon called frameshift mutation whereby the 3-codon sequence reading frame is shifted causing the amino acids translated, downstream of the deletion site, to be altered. This can gravely affect the function of the translated proteins and result in genetic disease.

6. Which of the following has the lowest cost of production of recombinant proteins?
mina [271]

Answer:

Bacteria

Explanation:

Bacteria constitutes large group of unicellular organisms that lacks membrane bound organelles and constitute cell wall. Bacteria are used for the production of recombinant proteins.

Bacteria can be selected easily for the recombinant protein formation. The plasmid of bacteria is helpful for the integration of desired genes and the production of protein. The bacteria culture can be maintained easily in the laboratory. The different strains of bacteria with different traits can be used for the production of different recombinant proteins at low cost.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).

Which statement describes Linus Pauling's contribution to the understanding of DNA structure?
solong [7]

Answer:

t describes Linus Pauling's contribution to the understanding of DNA structure?

Having first discovered the spiral shape of proteins, Linus Pauling used x-ray technology to hypothesize that the DNA molecule consisted of two consistently spaced strands that formed a spiral shape.

Linus Pauling studied DNA base pairing.

Having originally studied proteins, Pauling proposed that DNA was a three-chained helix with a sugar-phosphate backbone at the center and bases sticking out from the backbone.

Linus Pauling conducted experiments to prove that DNA carried genetic information.
