Part 4: Does the mutant gene Q code for an altered protein? You have the mutant version of gene Q below. The base pair difference is highlighted and underlined. 5'...TACTAATCGA AAATTGCAGA CTGTAATGGG AGTCAGATGA 3.ATGATTAGCT TTTAACGTCT GACATTACCC TCAGTCTACT +1.

Would it affect the sequence of the protein, the length, or both? *Hint: Consider where the start codon is in the original gene sequence and consider the frame after introduction of the mutation. It would create a longer protein It would not affect the protein because it is in the intron it would create a shorter protein It wouldn't allow the splicing of the intron It would not affect affect the protein because it is a silent mutation
