The wild-type mRNA for a small protein terminates with the sequence 5'-...GGC UAA GCU...-3', where UAA is the stop codon. A point mutation in the gene's DNA results in a mutated mRNA with the sequence 5'-...GGC UAC GCU...-3'. The 3' untranslated region (UTR) following this codon is 90 nucleotides long before the poly-A tail and contains an in-frame UGA stop codon at nucleotides 70-72 of the UTR. What is the expected product of translation?
