Is galactosemia a frameshift mutation insertion mutation or substitution mutation?

∙ 11y ago
There are 5 different disorders that result in galactosemia differentiated into three main types. The worst is the Classic form and there are over 180 different mutations associated with this form.
The GALT gene is modified by substitution is these examples.
The most common one in Caucasian is a single substitution of arginine for glutamine at position 188 on the protein.
Another mutation that occurs almost exclusively in individuals of African decent is
a single substitution of leucine for serine at position 135.

Can a frameshift mutation be a silnt mutation?
A frameshift mutation completely changes the genetic code from the point of the mutation, so the protein made as a result of the mutation would have the incorrect structure and would not function as it should.
If one nucleotide is replaced by another it is called?
frameshift mutation
What are the 4 types of mutations that can occur?
Insertion & deletion also known as frameshift mutationsubstitutionduplication mutationtranslocationGlad we could assist.
What is a frameshift in DNA?
Referring to the frameshift mutation in genes, frameshift is where number of nucleotides inserted or deleted is not a multiple of three, resulting in every codon after the point of insertion or deletion is read incorrectly during translation.
In what type of mutation is one base left out?
Insertion
Which is not a frameshift mutation substitution insertion deletion or point mutation?
frameshift- deletion and insertion point mutation- sustitution
What are two types of mutation?
From another angle: beneficial and detrimental.
What is never a frameshift mutation?
Substitution is not ever a frame shift mutation. However, insertion, point mutation, and deletion are all examples of a frame shift mutation.
Why is a frameshift mutation more damaging than a substitution?
why is frameshift mutation more damanging than a substitution

If one nucleotide is replaced by another it is called?
frameshift mutation
What are three types of chromosomal mutations?
Insertion, Deletion and Frameshift mutation. These are the 3 basic types of mutation, however, there are other types of mutations: substitution, translocation, duplication, inversion, transversion and transition.
What would produce a frameshift mutation?
An insertion/deletion event.
A mutation that causes antibiotic resistance in bacteria is a what mutation?
Missense mutation Nonsense mutation Frameshift insertion Frameshift deletion All may cause antibiotic resistance in bacteria
What mutation can change every amino acid that follows the point of mutation?
Frameshift mutations MAY change every amino acid that follows the point of mutation.
What are the 4 types of mutations that can occur?
Insertion & deletion also known as frameshift mutationsubstitutionduplication mutationtranslocationGlad we could assist.
What are 3 types of mutation?
Three types of gene mutations are substitution, insertion, and deletion. Another gene mutation would be frame shift. All these mutations can cause deformities of the gene.
