1. The DNA sequence is part of a gene. The sequence shown is AFTER the
following
it codes for seven amino acids of the polypeptide.
start codon but within the sequence is the correct reading frame that
Analyze the sequence to determine the what
is not necessarily the start of
codes for seven amino acids (note - the first nucleotide
trial and error approach to
the reading frame. For this question you will have to use
frame is).

2. The image shown below is the structure of a Drosophila gene, divided into 10
segments, labelled A-J. The image represents the coding strand of the gene, which
contains three exons, two introns, a promoter, and a site in segment J that
corresponds to where the poly(A)-tail is added to the RNA transcript.

2D) A +1 insertion mutation occurred in region D, after the ATG sequence. How would
this mutation likely affect the product produced? Would the RNA transcript be
produced ? Would a functional polypeptide chain be made?

4. Cystic fibrosis is a recessive human genetic condition that affects lung function.
Cystic Fibrosis is caused by mutationsin the human CFTR gene that result in a
defective CFTR protein. Taylor is a heterozygous carrier of a mutant CFTR allele.
Below is the template strand DNA sequence for both of Taylor's CFTR alleles. Within
this sequence is the first 5 codons of protein reading frame. The difference between the
mutant allele and wildtype allele is underlined and bolded.

Wildtype CFTR allele: 3 CCG TAC TGG GCC ATG TGGA 5

mutant CFTR allele: 3' CCG TAC TGG ACC ATG TGGA 5"

4A) What is the sequence of the first five amino acids of the wildtype CFTR protein
made?

What is the anticodon of the tRNA that would pair with the 3rd codon of the
4B)
wildtype CFTR reading frame?

4C) Taylor's mutant CFTR allele is what type of mutation?

A) Silent mutation
BFrameshift mutation
C) Nonsense mutation
D) Missense mutation
E) Deletion mutation
