What is an aberrant protein?
aberrant proteins are prions which lead to infectious disease.
What happen when there are mistakes made during protein synthesis?
The ribosomes are the " workbench " of protein synthesis with the rough ER accepting some polypeptide chains from the ribosomes studding it into it's lumen for modification. Then the modified proteins are shipped to the Golgi for further modification and shipment to wherever they are needed.
Can mutations add information in organisms?
mutations in dna can be advantageous and lead to charecteristics that help a person survive or increase it chances of survival.
When changes occur in the genes of six cells theses changes will lead to what?
It will lead to mutations in the parent organisms =)
How may some mutations be fatal?
Some can be lethal if the proteins these codes make end without being finished. Some lead to the death of an organism even before birth, others in childhood or later. An example is Huntington's Disease.
What type of mutation is less harmful to an organism?
Certain gene mutations do not lead to any apparent damage. These mutations are generally the ones in which the resulting amino acid is not changed.
What was the Production Budget for Take the Lead?
The Production Budget for Take the Lead was $30,000,000.
How does chemestry affect cancer?
Chemicals that do not cause cancer by themselves but can act with another chemical to cause cancer (cocarcinogens). Damage to DNA in cells can lead to cancer. ... Unrepaired DNA damage can lead to mutations, or changes, in genes, and mutations in certain genes can cause cancer. You can also inherit mutations.
Mutations are a source of what in a species?
Genetic variation, which can lead to evoloution, and then potentially a new species.
Why are mutations in reproductive cells so dangerous?
Mutations in reproductive cells (sperm/egg cell) can be caused by X rays and this can lead to birth defects.
What can lead to the development of new mutations in the gene pool?
do it own your own ;p
Viruses and chemical exposure can cause mutations in proto-oncogenes which can lead to?
onocogenes. Process: -PO (proto-oncogenes) are moved (closer to promoter/enhancer) -More PO is made -Proteins are made in excess (in more excess if it's been in excess from previous step) -Mutations at pts -At PO, causing increase expression -At coding gene, causing gene protein to resist degeneration
