Mutations in genes that encode tRNAs can create tRNAs that recognize stop codons. Because stop codons are sometimes called nonsense codons, these types of mutations that affect tRNAs are called nonsense suppressors. For example, a normal tRNAGly has an anticodon sequence CCU that recognizes a glycine codon in mRNA (GGA) and inserts a glycine during translation. However, a mutation in the gene that encodes tRNAGly could change the anticodon to ACU. This mutant tRNAGly would still carry glycine, but it would recognize the stop codon UGA. Requried:
Would this mutation affect attenuation of the trp operon?

Which of the following best describes the expensive tissue hypothesis? brains require more energy, so the gut had to be reduced, and larger brains and tool use led to higher quality diets. increasing body size means that homo neanderthalensis had to include more fat in its diet. brains require more energy, so the gut had to be reduced as brains got bigger. brains require more fat, so the gastrointestinal viscera (gut) had to expand, and hands were needed to acquire more food.
