Question

6. Why are well-defined reading frames critical in protein synthesis?

A. Without a well-defined reading frame, the peptide made from a given sequence could be completely different.
B. Without a well-defined reading frame, the resulting protein would be transported to the cell surface
C. Without a well-defined reading frame, the mRNA would be transcribed back into DNA.
D. Without a well-defined reading frame, the ribosome is unable to bind to the mRNA.
