Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Methylation of the abnormal gene is likely to suppress its transcription, effectively blocking its production of abnormal insulin. This would allow the normal insulin allele to be expressed exclusively, which would result in the production of normal insulin. However, with only one allele active, the person would produce lower amounts of insulin.
