Assume that an error has occurred during DNA replication, and the new non-template DNA strand has a mutation in the base sequence, such that the nucleotide that is in bold and underlined (*) has been added to the normal sequence. Please decipher the new "message." non-template DNA strand +1 * 5’

a. What is the sequence of the new "message?" Please use the single letter codes for each amino acid to decipher the "message." Again, show all your work.
b. What type of mutation point or Frameshift has occurred? You perform an enzymatic rate of reaction analysis on 2 mutants of an enzyme and obtain the following data (Note: these are not the mutants above)
