Answer: The protein will be a substrate for protein kinases
Explanation: Kinases are a class of enzymes that catalyze the addition of a phosphoryl group to a protein. The kinase will add a phosphoryl group to the protein at its serine/ threonine residues.
Answer:
The mutations lie at locations where they don't affect protein sequence due to degeneracy of the genetic code.
Explanation:
Genetic code is the set of the triplet codons each of which code for a specific amino acid. The nucleotide sequence of mRNA is read in the form of triplets during the process of protein synthesis and the respective amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain. The genetic code is degenerate. This means that more than one triplet code specifies one amino acid and some amino acids are encoded by more than one codon.
For instance, genetic codes CUU, CUC, CUA, CUG specify amino acid "leucine". Therefore, any change in the DNA sequence that replaces one code for the leucine with another would not affect the amino acid composition of the protein. This would result in the synthesis of proteins with the same amino acid sequence from both the wild type and mutated genes.
Answer:
Paramecium never gets old because it keeps on dividing into new paramecium by reproduction.
