Want to know:
Mutations that alter sequences near the 5′ end of mRNA result in alterations near the corresponding protein's N-terminal end, whereas mutations that alter the 3′ sequences of mRNA result in alterations in the protein's C-terminal end. What do these findings imply?A. The N- and C-terminal ends of proteins are susceptible to alteration.B. The genetic code is a series of amino acids (the component parts of proteins).C. The order of nucleotides from 5′ to 3′ in mRNA determines the order of amino acids from N- to C-termini.D. The genetic code is universal.
