Will the resulting protein be affected if GUA is changed to GUU?

No, the change from GUA to GUU will not affect the resulting protein because both codons code for the amino acid Valine. This is an example of redundancy in the genetic code, where different codons can code for the same amino acid.


How is it possible for gene with a mutation in coding region to encode a polypeptide with the same amino acid sequence as the nonmutant gene?

If the mutant codon still codes for the same amino acid (a silent mutation). For example: GUU, GUC, GUA and GUG all code for the amino acid Valine. So if the mutation changed the codon from GUU to GUA - Valine would still be produced and therefore the polypeptide will be identical.


What is a possible mRNA sequence of the amino acid valine?

GUU, GUC, GUA, GUG


What is the amino acid code for tryptophan?

The amino acid code for tryptophan is "Trp."


What would be the amino acid code for GAG?

The amino acid code for the mRNA codon GAG corresponds to the amino acid Glutamic acid (Glu). In the genetic code, GAG is one of the codons that specifies this particular amino acid.


What codon is the code for the amino acid valine (Val)?

GUC


How does the process of translation convert information?

From a nucleic acid code to an amino acid code


How many amino acids make a codon?

One codon specifies a specific amino acid. However, more than one codon can code for the same amino acid. For example, the codon GUU codes for the specific amino acid valine; and the codons GUC, GUA, and GUG also code for valine.


What is the 3-letter code for the amino acid asparagine?

The 3-letter code for the amino acid asparagine is Asn.


What is the 3-letter code for the amino acid serine?

The 3-letter code for the amino acid serine is Ser.


What is the single-letter code for the amino acid tryptophan?
