go look in your text book u have one u lazy ;) ;p
They both involve a mis-reading of the Triplet Genetic Code {codons}contained within double stranded Dna.
nun
The Frameshift mutation affects more codons rather than in a point mutation depending on where it happens.
A frame shift mutation destroys the correct sequence of amino acids from the point of the mutation. The protein produced by a frame shift mutation would more than likely be nonfunctional.
This is called an insertion mutation.Some repeats, such as the repeats in the Huntington's gene, can be repeated too many times and then you have the deleterious mutation in this gene.
Deletions, because they shift the reading frame and cause downstream amino acids to be changed.
Deletion (resulting in a frame shift), duplication (also resulting in a frame shift), or a plain old SNP (change of base). You might also be looking for one which changes the amino acid coding sequence and one that does not.
Point Mutations always result in [causing] a frame-shift mutation so they are the same.
Frameshift mutations and Point mutations. The difference between the two are that point mutations occur at a single point in the DNA sequence and frameshift mutations shift the "reading frame" of the genetic message.
Frame shift mutations that occur on the X chromosome and within the potion of code that controls the formation of clotting factors can cause hemophilia. Frame shift mutations are only one of many types of mutations that can cause the disorder. For hemophilia it's not so much the type of mutation but the location of the mutation within the genetic code.
"I believe there is insertion and deletion, (one kind), and substitutions. (the second kind)" This answer is incorrect, the two types of frameshift mutation are insertion and deletion, these both alter the translation reading frame. A substitution point mutation in DNA is referred to as a single-nucleotide polymorphism and does not result in any change to the translational reading frame. insections and deletions are two types of frameshift mutations
Frame shift mutation occurs when a new codon in inserted. Point mutations occurs when one base, sometimes two, are inserted.
Four types of chromosomal mutations include substitution, insertion, deletion, and frame shift. These mutations can be either positive of negative to the organism.
The Frameshift mutation affects more codons rather than in a point mutation depending on where it happens.
A mutation is simply an accidental change in your genes or DNA sequence. The types of mutations in biology are:substitution, insertion,delection and frame-shift.
A mutation is simply a change in your genes or DNA sequence. The types of mutations in Biology are: substitution, insertion, deletion, and frame-shift. Contrary to popular belief, mutations are often harmless.
A point mutation that does not produce a frame shift is when one single base is replaced by a different base. This changes the DNA sequence, but does not cause a frame shift because it is a switch not an addition or subtraction of a base.
No
Point mutations are when a single nucleotide is replaced by a different one, but this doesn't affect the length of the DNA sequence, which usually will not affect the way the protein that is produced. A phase shift (what I think you meant) mutation is caused by an addition or deletion of a base that changes the length of the sequence. This causes problems because codons to make proteins are in sets of 3 and deleting a nucleotide makes the reading frame different and will add incorrect amino acids to the proteins from the mutation on, resulting in an ineffective protein.
