Ethyl methane sulfonate is a chemical mutagen that modifies bases in DNA. This agent causes C to be mutated to T. What is the outcome if this type of mutation occurs in the bases of codon 5 in the sequence of the following sense strand of DNA? GTCACCGGTCTATACATAAGC
A) There would be a change in DNA sequence but no change in the protein sequence due to the redundancy of the genetic code.
B) There would be a mis-sense mutation, resulting in the substitution of an Asn for a His residue in the protein.
C) There would be a non-sense mutation, resulting in the synthesis of a truncated protein.
D) Both B and C are possible outcomes.
