Explain how this genetic mutation can lead to a change in the structure and function of the protein made from this gene. Include and underline ALL of the following in your transcription,
mRNA, RNA, translation, protein structure, and protein function. (You may use a variation of
each word if that makes more grammatical sense in your response).

A genetic mutation in DNA can lead to a change in the structure and function of the protein since this mutation passes through transcription to the mRNA —whose base sequence is altered— and in translation by the ribosomes, fewer or more or different amino acids are produced from this altered gene.

Explanation:

DNA is the nucleic acid that contains the genetic information of a living organism. When this molecule is affected by a mutation, the end result can be an alteration in the protein structure as well as in the protein function.

The molecular mutation consists of the change in the amount or sequence of bases that form the DNA. This alteration passes through mRNA transcription, with alteration in its normal nucleotide sequence. Since mRNA forms the codons that encode for amino acids, translation in the ribosomes produces

a protein that:

In any case, a mutation causes the RNA information to be altered, which can affect the protein structure, the protein function or both.
