What is mutation how can it change in an amino acid sequence damage the protein

The outcome of a frameshift mutation is complete alteration of the amino acid sequence of a protein. This alteration occurs during translation because ribosomes read the mRNA strand in terms of codons, or groups of three nucleotides. These groups are called the reading frame.

If the initiating codon of a mRNA became mutated, what would the effect be on the transcript?

Answer:

Translation will not occur.

Explanation:

The start codon is responsible for the initiation of translation in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. AUG is the start codon in both which code for methionine in eukaryotes and formyl methionine and prokaryotes.

Therefore if the starts codon becomes mutated than the tRNA would not able to recognize the initiation codon and no methionine would be added as the first amino acid so the translation process might not start and no protein forms. Then the ribosome scans further for the next start codon to start translation.

Prokaryotic cells have a cell wall surrounding their cell membrane .The Prokaryotic cells don't have a well defined nucleus .The genetic material of the cell is basically naked and not enveloped by the Nuclear membrane .
Eukaryotic cells don't have a cell wall surrounding their cell membrane. The Eukaryotic cells have a well organised nucleus .The genetic material of the cell is surrounded by nuclear membrane or nuclear envelope.
Both Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells have DNA.Both have a plasma membrane or cell membrane.
