Question
gene expression
the order of the nucleotides on dna is important why?
because it includes the genetic information that determines the sequence of amino acids in proteins.
what is it called when that order is changed?
mutation
what is the outcome?
The order of nucleotides in DNA holds genetic information for protein - amino acid sequences. A change in this order is called a mutation. The outcome of a mutation can be a change in the structure and function of the resulting protein, potentially leading to genetic disorders or providing new traits for evolution.
