Question

​A mutation has occurred that has changed the codon CGC to CCC? What affect will the mutation have on the protein?

Answer 1

The mutation leads to apoptosis in p53 mutant cells

Step-by-step explanation:

This mutation is basically the point mutation where CGC-arginine mutates to CCC-proline. The major difference between the two is presence of codon 72 of the p53 gene . This codon in p53 leads to apoptosis in p53 mutant cells
