what are splice junction mutations?

Answer Posted / 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.

The village of Oblong has 400 normally-shaped residents. Transferrin is an iron carrier found in blood, and electrophoretic variation of this protein is determined by an autosomal codominant system. The citizens of Oblong were typed for their transferrin complements. The distribution of transferrin phenotypes was: 100 CC, 100 CD, and 200 DD. What is the frequency of the C allele?
