Imagine that there is a mutation in the cyclin gene such that its gene product is nonfunctional. What kind of effect would this mutation have on a skin cell in the area of a cut

The correct answer is - The cell would be unable to produce.

Explanation:

Cyclin is a protein that helps in cell division to complete the various stages. It has an essential function, however, cyclin does not play role in enzymatic reactions bit bind with cyclin-dependent kinase enzyme they form maturation promoting factors which can phosphorylate specific proteins and result in many different stages of the cell cycle.

Mutation in cyclin gene that did not allow to produce cyclin protein will cease the cell cycle and there would be no future daughter cell and the cell would not be able to produce.
