What is never a frameshift mutation?
A point mutation is never a frameshift mutation because it involves the substitution of a single nucleotide for another rather than the insertion or deletion of nucleotides that would disrupt the reading frame of a gene.
Can a point mutation result in a frameshift mutation?
Yes, a point mutation can result in a frameshift mutation if it occurs in a coding region of a gene and disrupts the reading frame of the genetic code.
Was the sequence a result of point or frame shift mutation?
No
Can a point mutation be frameshift mutation?
No
Which is not a frameshift mutation substitution insertion deletion or point mutation?
A point mutation is not a frameshift mutation. Point mutations involve changes in a single nucleotide base, while frameshift mutations involve the insertion or deletion of nucleotide bases, causing a shift in the reading frame of the genetic code.
Would a point mutation or a frame shift mutation more likely produce a neutral mutation?
A point shift mutation is more likely to produce a neutral reaction. This is because it involves a change in one nucleotide. A frame shift mutation is more deleterious because it involves the insertion or deletion of multiple base pairs within a gene's coding sequence.
Why is point mutation dangerous?
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.
What is never a frameshift mutation?
A point mutation is never a frameshift mutation because it involves the substitution of a single nucleotide for another rather than the insertion or deletion of nucleotides that would disrupt the reading frame of a gene.
Can a point mutation result in a frameshift mutation?
Yes, a point mutation can result in a frameshift mutation if it occurs in a coding region of a gene and disrupts the reading frame of the genetic code.
How are point mutations and frame shift mutations different?
Point Mutations always result in [causing] a frame-shift mutation so they are the same.
Was the sequence a result of point or frame shift mutation?
No
Can a point mutation be frameshift mutation?
No
Which is not a frameshift mutation substitution insertion deletion or point mutation?
A point mutation is not a frameshift mutation. Point mutations involve changes in a single nucleotide base, while frameshift mutations involve the insertion or deletion of nucleotide bases, causing a shift in the reading frame of the genetic code.
What type of mutation results in a gene change in the body's reproductive cells?
Generally, a germ line mutation or sex cell mutation. Could be anything from a point mutation, one amino acid difference, to a whole frame shift mutation.
What is a senqence a result of point or frame-shift?
A sentence that results from a point mutation might be: "The cat sat on the mat," whereas a frame-shift mutation could lead to: "The cta tso nat ema t," which alters the entire sequence of codons and changes the meaning. Point mutations involve a single nucleotide change, while frame-shift mutations result from insertions or deletions that disrupt the reading frame.
A change in a single nucleotide in DNA-?
A mutation
Which mutation would not change the remainder of the reading frame of a gene sequence that follows the mutation?
A silent mutation, where a nucleotide substitution results in a codon that codes for the same amino acid, would not change the remainder of the reading frame of a gene sequence. This is because the amino acid sequence produced by the altered codon remains the same.
