Glutamate is substituted for a valine at position 6.
But this is not an amino acid problem, it's the construction of hemoglobin that's in error.
yes
Hemoglobin is a protein, which is composed of linked amino acids.
It's called sulphur
sickle cell disease
Just one incorrect amino acid prevents protein from functioning properly in sickle cell anemia.
terminal amino acid of the beta chain
The substitution of one triplet code in the DNA that codes for an mRNA that codes for an amino acid that makes up a protein. Sickle cell trait is an example of this. One amino acid substitution in a B chain of hemoglobin and you have an allele that will code for sickle cell trait.
Sickle Cell disease A disease that involves misshaped cells that can easily cause blood clots.
No no no, the goat did...
loss of only one amino acid from the normal hemoglobin molecule
