The following is a generalized diagram of a typical eukaryotic gene , What is the most likely effect of a 2bp insertion in the middle of the intron?
Introns are non-coding region of gene which are processed out of primary transcript. Hence, any change in intron will not effect transcription or translation.
Normal transcription, altered translation
Defective termination of transcription, normal translation
Normal transcription, defective mRNA splicing
Normal transcription, normal translation
