A truncated polypeptide is synthesized due to a nonsense mutation. Where would you introduce another mutation to obtain a full-length polypeptide?
-
- Ribosomal protein gene
- Transfer RNA gene
- DNA repair gene
- Ribosomal RNA gene
Correct Option: B
Non sense mutations causes premature stop to be introduced that would lead to truncated or incomplete protein synthesis. If the protein synthesis has to be continued, another mutation in t-RNA gene would continue be advised to get full length polypeptide
