Solutions For An Introduction to Genetic Analysis Chapter 15 Problem 30P

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution 1

In this case, the SINE element would be in an intron of a gene. During processing of the pre-mRNA, this transposable element would be removed as a part of the intron. Hence, translation of the FB enzyme would not be affected.

Even the presence of a 250 base pairs SINE in the FB gene of one mouse can still produce FB enzyme and the function of the FB gene is not altered.
