Summary
| Description |
English: In sickle cell anemia, the Thymine nucleotide base on the DNA template strand is replaced with Adenine, which causes the mRNA to have a Uracil nucleotide instead of an Adenine one. This carries forward and during translation, instead of glutamic acid being added, a valine amino acid is instead added to the chain of amino acids, which causes the protein to fold incorrectly and giving the affected cell a sickle shape. |
