From top to bottom, adenine on the left strand is bonded to thymine on the right, guanine on the left is bonded to cytosine on the right, and thymine on the left is bonded to adenine on the right, through a bond labeled X. On the left strand, the bond between the sugar and the phosphate that connect the second and third nucleotides is labeled W.

Two figures are presented. Figure 1 presents the Original Amino Acid Chain, with an aspartic acid on the left, followed by a cysteine, followed by a lysine. Aspartic acid has a negative 1 charge on its R group, cysteine has an uncharged R group composed of a carbon atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms and an S H group, and lysine has a positive 1 charge on its R group. Figure 2 presents the Mutated Amino Acid Chain, with an aspartic acid on the left, followed by a valine, followed by a lysine. Aspartic acid has a negative 1 charge on its R group, valine has an uncharged R group composed of a carbon atom bonded to one hydrogen atom and two C H 3 groups, and lysine has a positive 1 charge on its R group. How might this change affect the structure and function of the protein? A. The R-group of the new amino acid, valine, has different chemical properties than the R-group of cysteine. This will cause the protein to misfold and not function properly in the cell. B. The new amino acid, valine, has replaced cysteine in the new protein. Since the number of amino acids has remained the same, there will be no change in the three-dimensional folding, or function, of the protein. C. Since this is a linear section, it does not influence protein folding. Thus, there will be no change in protein structure or function. D. Since the new amino acid is bounded on one side by an amino acid with a negatively charged R-group and by an amino acid on the other side with a positively charged R-group, the charges will balance and the protein will fold as usual.
