1 A nonsense mutation is a point mutation in a sequence of DNA that results in a premature stop codon, or a nonsense codon in the transcribed mRNA, and possibly a truncated, and often nonfunctional protein product.
Report Abuse. Messenger RNA (mRNA) is RNA that encodes and carries information from DNA during transcription) to sites of protein synthesis to undergo translation in order to yield a gene product. mRNA life cycle. The brief life of an mRNAs begins with transcription and ultimately ends in degradation.1] Anti-sense mRNA During transcription, double stranded DNA produces mRNA from the sense strand; the other, complementary, strand of DNA is termed anti-sense. Anti-sense mRNA is an RNA complementary in sequence to one or more mRNAs.
