Humans are almost identical in the protein-coding sections of the genome, yet each individual has a unique DNA profile. Explain how this is possible.

Although mutations in the coding region of a genes can lead to changes in protein sequence...

Although mutations in the coding region of a genes can lead to changes in protein sequence (non-synonomous, nonsense, frameshift) there are plenty of mutations in non-coding regions within the genome that can alter how gene are expressed. In the scenarios below, please indicate what non-coding regions might contain a SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) mutation, and how this SNP mutation might lead to the given scenario: a. no transcription occurs for a particular gene b. Transcription occurs, but the mRNA is...
