How does mutations result in genetic variation

Biology

4 0
<span>Genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring)</span>

Galactosemia is a metabolic disorder characterized by the inability to metabolize the sugar galactose. People with galactosemia
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Genetic mapping for unequivocal identification of the potentially causative mutation  

Explanation:

Galactosemia is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the Galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) gene, which encodes an enzyme involved in the metabolism of galactose. Gene mapping is a technique widely used in genetics to identify the position of one locus a chromosome by using molecular markers to estimate genetic distances. Genetic mapping provides useful evidence in order to identify when a disease that is transmitted from parent to offspring can be associated with one or more genes and then determine which gene/s is/are responsible for this condition.

What would happen if a cell transcribed and translated a gene’s intron by mistake?
wariber [46]

An intron is a non-coding region of DNA. During alternative splicing, introns are removed.

  • During eukaryotic transcription, a fragment of DNA (e.g., a gene) is used as a template to synthesize a complementary RNA sequence, usually a precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA).

  • Subsequently, this pre-mRNA is processed by a mechanism called alternative splicing in order to produce a mature mRNA which is then used as template to synthesize a protein by a process called translation.

  • During alternative splicing, non-coding regions of a gene called 'introns' are removed, where coding regions called 'exons' are spliced back together.

  • If a cell transcribed and translated a gene’s intron by mistake, then additional amino acids would be inserted into the protein and therefore the resulting protein will be longer than normal.
