Biology
1 answer:
ss7ja [257]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Epitopes.

Explanation:

Antigen: Antigens are foreign proteins that enter the host body through an infection. Antigens are generally high molecular weight proteins or polysaccharides. Viruses and bacteria contain antigen on their surface or inside the body.

Epitope: Epitope is the molecular region on the surface of the antigen which interacts with the antibody binding site on the antigen. Epitopes are capable of stimulating an immune response so, these are also known as antigenic determinants. Binding between the receptor and epitopes occurs when they both fit together like a puzzle, that event is necessary to activate B-cell production of antibodies.

A part of an mRNA has the sequence CCG. Which change to this sequence
Flauer [41]

Answer:

A single nucleotide changes in CCG which will result in missense mutation can be many possibilities.

Explanation:

Missense mutations  

CCG codes for Proline amino acid

• Mutation in first nucleotide codes for  

 UCG specifically encodes Serine

 ACG specifically encodes Threonine  

 GCG specifically encodes Alanine                              

                                                                                      Missense mutation  

• Mutation in second nucleotide specify for coding

 CUG specifically encodes Leucine

 CAG specifically encodes Glutamine  

 CGG specifically encodes Arginine

• Mutation in Third Nucleotide will not result in missense mutation because any point mutation in third nucleotide of codon will encode same amino acid i.e Proline.
