Suppose That an Induced Mutation Removes Most of the 5

Multiple Choice

Suppose that an induced mutation removes most of the 5' end of the 5' UTR. What might result?

A) Removal of the 5' UTR has no effect because the exons are still maintained.
B) Removal of the 5' UTR also removes the 5' cap, and the mRNA will quickly degrade.
C) The 3' UTR will duplicate and one copy will replace the 5' end.
D) The first exon will not be read because I1 will now serve as the UTR.
E) Removal of the 5' UTR will result in the strand not binding to tRNAs.
