A mutation is found in a trna-encoding gene the wild type


A mutation is found in a tRNA-encoding gene. The wild type allele produces a tRNA that recognizes the codon GAA, and is charged with the amino acid Glutamic acid. The mutant tRNA is still charged with Glu, but the anticodon is mutated such that it recognizes the codon TAA. What effect will this have on translation in these cells? How will the proteins produced be different?
