Answer to Question #189904 in Molecular Biology for Misbah

Question

Is it possible for an organism to produce normal protein even after mutation? If yes, how and why

Answer 1

Yes it is possible for an organism to produce normal protein even after mutation. While mutations always change the DNA sequence, they do not always cause a change in the resulting protein or an obvious effect on the organism. This can occur because most amino acids can be coded by two or more different codons.
