All of the options above will lead to an improper protein sequence i.e.

  1. A mutation in the DNA gene sequence
  2. A mutation in the mRNA sequence
  3. A mutation in the tRNA anticodon sequence

WHAT IS THE PROCESS OF PROTEIN SYNTHESIS:

  • Protein synthesis is the process by which information encoded by DNA (gene) is used to synthesize proteins. Protein synthesis involves transcription and translation.

  • Transcription is the synthesis of mRNA molecule from a DNA template while translation is the synthesis of amino acid sequence from a mRNA transcript.

WHAT IS MUTATION?

  • Mutation is any alteration in the nucleotide sequence of nucleic acid.

  • Since DNA, mRNA and tRNA anticodon (carry amino acids to corresponding tRNA) are all involved in the production of proteins in cells, any alteration or mutation affecting them will lead to an improper protein sequence.

Therefore, the following (all of the options) will lead to an improper protein sequence:

  1. A mutation in the DNA gene sequence
  2. A mutation in the mRNA sequence
  3. A mutation in the tRNA anticodon sequence
