Challenge 1: make a mutation that causes a property change
Here
you will make a mutation that replaces a hydrophobic amino acid with a
hydrophilic one.
-
Reset ( ) the model and make the protein (first
transcribe, then translate).
-
Take a snapshot and use the arrow annotation tool to indicate the
amino acid created by the second codon. | Hint
1 | Hint 2.
-
Make a substitution mutation in the second DNA triplet to change it
from TTT to TCT. Hint 3.
-
Make the new protein, take a snapshot, and indicate the new amino acid.
