If one of the nitrogen bases were replaced by a different base what effect might that have on protein synthesis?

It depends. Because many amino acids have more than one codon, it may not affect the protein at all. However, if it does change the amino acid sequence, it could cause a change in the three-dimensional structure of the protein, resulting in a mutation.

What are the complimentary nitrogen bases in protein synthesis?
The complimentary nitrogen bases are: adenine with thymine cytosine with guanine
What mineral is needed for a plant to make protein?
The essential element needed for protein synthesis in plants is nitrogen. Protein contains carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. The first three elements are supplied by water and carbon dioxide. Nitrogen is absorbed by the roots as nitrate from the soil.
What is the site for protein-synthesis?
The site for protein synthesis is a cell structure. The specific structure in which synthesis occurs is the ribosomes, which is in the cytoplasm.
How does the general Idea of forensic science relate to protein synthesis?
The general idea of forensic science in relation to protein synthesis is that genes are the regions of DNA. These encodes and regulates protein synthesis.
What is the role of the ribosome?
Amino acids assembled to make protein (protein synthesis)
Why do plants and animal and other organisms need nitrogen?
Nitrogen is required by plants and animals for protein synthesis
Absence of which nitrogen bases would prevent protein synthesis?
Proteins are made up of amino acids. All amino acids contain nitrogen. A complete absense of nitrogen would halt protein synthesis.
What are the complimentary nitrogen bases in protein synthesis?
The complimentary nitrogen bases are: adenine with thymine cytosine with guanine
What hormone in the presence of adequate nutrient availability encourages the stimulation of protein synthesis and a positive nitrogen balance This is why postworkout food in?
Testosterone encourages the stimulation of protein synthesis.
Why do the body need protein synthesis while the body is also synthesis protein?
why does the body need protein synthesis while the also synthesis protein?
What is translation when speaking of protein synthesis?
tRNA is changed into amino acids following nitrogen base pairing rules.
What is the product of protein synthesis?
A protein. That's what protein synthesis means.
How are the different types of RNA similar?
They all function in protein synthesis.
What is the sight for protein synthesis?
Ribosomes are site of protein synthesis .
Is protein synthesis is a catabolic reaction?
No, protein synthesis is endergonic.
Where is the majority OF protein synthesis occurs?
Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis
What is the role of rRNA the protein synthesis?
it hold the protein synthesis in the ribosomes
