Imagine discovering a loss-of-function mutation in a eukaryotic gene. you determine the gene's nucleotide sequence from the start site for transcription to the termination point of transcription and find no differences from the wild-type sequence. explain where you think the mutation might be and how the mutation might be acting.

For the answer to the question above, I believe that the mutation is likely in any type of regulatory sequence.The mutation is probably acting to reduce or prevent transcription initiation.

I hope my answer helped you in some ways.
