1. Why do some point mutations in DNA affect protein structure while others do not? Why do some mutations affecting protein structure have mild effects on phenotype, while others have very serious (or life-threatening) effects? Explain this phenomenon in terms of eukaryotic gene structure, the genetic code, and protein structure.
