9. Replacement of an A by a T in a region of the human gene for the B chain of hemoglobin is associated with sickle-cell anemia:
Normal: 5â²-ATGGTGCACCTGACTCCTGAGGAGAAGTCT-3â²
Sickle cell: 5â²-ATGGTGCACCTGACTCCTGTGGAGAAGTCT-3â²
(a) What is the nucleotide sequence of the normal and sickle-cell hemoglobin mRNA?
(b) What is the amino acid sequence in this part of the Bpolypeptide chain, and what is the amino acid replacement that results in sickle-cell hemoglobin?
(c) Why might this amino acid substitution make a difference in protein structure?
