What are the DNA base pairs?<br><br> Need asap

padilas [110]

Answer:

I hope i helped

Explanation:

A base pair (bp) is a fundamental unit of double-stranded nucleic acids consisting of two nucleobases bound to each other by hydrogen bonds. They form the building blocks of the DNA double helix and contribute to the folded structure of both DNA and RNA. Dictated by specific hydrogen bonding patterns, "Watson–Crick" base pairs (guanine–cytosine and adenine–thymine) allow the DNA helix to maintain a regular helical structure that is subtly dependent on its nucleotide sequence. The complementary nature of this based-paired structure provides a redundant copy of the genetic information encoded within each strand of DNA. The regular structure and data redundancy provided by the DNA double helix make DNA well suited to the storage of genetic information, while base-pairing between DNA and incoming nucleotides provides the mechanism through which DNA polymerase replicates DNA and RNA polymerase transcribes DNA into RNA. Many DNA-binding proteins can recognize specific base-pairing patterns that identify particular regulatory regions of genes.

What if a mutation caused a change in the code so the message read GAG instead of GAC?  How would this affect the protein produc

Anarel [89]

Answer: There will be no effect on the protein produced

Explanation:

According to the genetic code, the triplet codon GAG code for the amino acid, glutamate, while GAC code for aspartate.

Since GAG and GAC code for amino acids with similar properties (aspartate and glutamate are both acidic amino acids due to the extra carboxyl group present in their side chain), the change in nucleotide is still similar to the original, so will result in a different amino acid sequence, but will not alter the function of the protein at all. Thus, this kind of mutation is called silent mutation.
