Question

The enzyme tryptophan synthetase is produced sizes, large and small. Some mutants with no enz tivity produced exactly the same size enzymes as the wild type. Other mutants with no activity produced its the large enzyme; still others, just the small enzyme.

a. Explain the different types of mutants at the level of protein structure.
b. Why do you think there were no mutants that produced no enzyme?

Answer 1

Due to changes occur in the protein structure.

Step-by-step explanation:

The different types of mutants produced at the level of protein structure because mutation changes the protein structure of organism which leads to different types of mutant organisms. There were no mutants that produced no enzyme because enzymes are the most important part of the body in order to help the organism in their survival. These enzymes speed up the process of chemical reaction.
