Question: A base substitution in the mRNA for an enzyme results in the replacement of leucine with alanine....

Show transcribed image text A base substitution in the mRNA for an enzyme results in the replacement of leucine with alanine. Why does this change in amino acids have little effect on the biological activity of the enzyme? A base subsitution in mRNA replaces cytosine in the codon UCA with adenine. How would this substitution affect the amino acids in the protein?
