Question

Due to a random error by the aminoacyl tRNA synthetase, a tRNAVal was misloaded with Ile. What do you predict will result

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer would be - One protein will get Ile inserted where Val was supposed to go, result in minor structural change in the protein.

Explanation:

Isoleucine and Valine both are aliphatic and branched amino acids that carrying an aliphatic chain with α-amino and an α-carboxylic acid group. These are presented within the protein.

There would be no major effect on the protein as these are aliphatic and hydrophobic in nature if an amino acid replacement takes place. Here, aromatic or aliphatic and hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid replacement most likely result in minnimal structural changes.
