It is possible to have a mutation in a gene that produces no change whatsoever in the protein coded for by that gene.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is because some mutations are silent mutations, which means they do not change the amino acid sequence of the protein. Instead, they may result in the same amino acid being produced or a different codon being used to code for the same amino acid. As a result, the protein's function and structure are not altered.
