The amino acids that signal the enzyme to cut the DNA could be lost in the deletion resulting in the DNA not being cut as it normally would. This deletion could also cause a frame shift that could change the amino acids that occur after the mutation. This could lead to the base sequence that the enzyme cuts to appear more or less frequently than normal, causing the DNA to be cut differently. This would affect the size, shape, and function of the protein created, causing a deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase resulting in PKU.

•The codon for Glutamate (gaa) was mutated to a codon for Lysine (aaa).

•This would cause the loss of a negatively charged amino acid which is then replaced with a positively charged amino acid.

Serine is an uncharged polar amino acid, which is replaced with phenylalanine an uncharged nonpolar amino acid. Changing from polar to nonpolar would be crucial to the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase, which normally converts phenylalanine to the amino acid, tyrosine.

Questions

1. Symptoms of PKUa. Untreated: mental retardation, “mousy” odor, light pigmentation, peculiarities of gait,

stance, and sitting posture, eczema, and epilepsy

b. Treated: mildly depressed IQ

2. PKU results from a mutation in the structural gene for phenylalanine hydroxylase.

3. The mode of inheritance is autosomol recessive.

4. The incidence of PKU in Europeans at birth is 1 per 10,000.

a. The predicted allele frequency of the PKU allele is 1/100

b. The predicted carrier frequency is 198 per 10,000 or .0198.

The deletions of the bases in codon 376 and 377 caused a

stop codon to be created at 399, making a premature termination in the protein.
