Question

Match each of the mutations or scenarios below with the most likely effect on translation.

A. A down mutation in glycyl tRNA synthetase

B. The presence of an upstream open reading frame

C. An up mutation in RRF

D. A down mutation in poly-A polymerase (PAP)

E. A mutation in glycyl tRNA that makes the tRNA bind to a stop codon

__ Translation of a single gene decreases

__ Translation results in proteins with extra amino acids

__ The process of translation stalls

__ The overall rate of translation increases

__ The overall rate of translation decreases

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

A. A down mutation in glycyl tRNA synthetase - Translation results in proteins with extra amino acid

B. The presence of an upstream open reading frame- The overall rate of Translation decrease

C. An up mutation in RRF - Translation of a single gene decreases

D. A down mutation in poly-A polymerase (PAP)- The overall rate of translation decrease

E. A mutation in glycyl tRNA that makes the tRNA bind to a stop codon- The process of translation stalls
