A partial peptide sequence for the wild type and three mutant alleles of a gene,PET1,are shown below.Each mutant was caused by a single point mutation.
a)Using the amino acid sequence of the wild type and the three mutants,deduce the exact DNA sequence of the coding strand of the wild-type allele.
b)What type of mutation (transition vs.transversion vs.indel;missense vs.nonsense vs.frameshift)has occurred in each mutant?
c)What consequence will each of the above-mentioned DNA mutations have on protein function?
