what are splice junction mutations?
Answer / swapna
G-to-C substitution at the 5 end of an intron in the muscle-
specific subunit gene.
The mutation destroys the high-consensus GT sequence at the
5 splice junction of the intron, which causes skipping of
the preceding exon.
This is the second molecular genetic defect identified in
the myopathic variant of PhK deficiency.

How restriction enzymes,DNA probes are used in genetic engineering?
In pea plants, tall plants are dominant to short plants. If two heterozygous tall plants are crossed, what percent of the offspring will probably be short?
In sesame, the one-pod condition (P) is dominant to the three-pod condition (p), and normal leaf (L) is dominant over wrinkled leaf (l). The two characters are inherited independently. Determine the genotypes and phenotypes of the two plants which produce the following progeny: 318 one- pod normal, 98 one-pod wrinkled, 323 three-pod normal and 104 three-pod wrinkled.
