What gene or chromosome is mutated in the hemophilia disorder?
There are two types of hemophilia. Type A: A mutation in the factor VIII gene. Type B: A mutation in the IX gene.
What is a gene mutation?
Gene mutation is the change in the DNA sequence that is permanent and leads to new genetic traits and even diseases. This type of mutation is triggered through hereditary process or through several factors in the environment.
What is hemophilia A B or C?
First of all, there is no such thing as hemophilia C. Second, Type A: A mutation in the factor VIII gene. Type B: A mutation in the IX gene. Both of these genes are need to help clot the blood and close wounds(scabbing).
Which type of mutation causes the most change to the protein produced?
A silent mutation
What type of mutation results when bases are added to the gene?
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.
What type of mutation cause cell anemia?
Mutations in the hemoglobin molecules cause sickle cell anemia.
A mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called a(an)?
Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.
What is the cause of neorofibromatosis?
The cause of neurofibromatosis type 1 is a genetic mutation in the NF1 gene. This gene is the one that produces a protein that helps regulate the growth of nerve tissue.
What is the type of mutation that causes crohn's disease?
A frameshift mutation in the CARD15 gene
What type of mutation causes sickle cell anemia substitution deletion insertion mutagen?
The type of mutation that causes a defect in the gene (causing sickle cell anaemia) is a substitution mutation.A single nucleotide substitution (A to T) in the β-globin gene causes the amino acid valine to replace glutamic acid. This changes the resulting protein, causing a haemoglobin with an abnormal shape to be created.
What gene or chromosome is mutated in the hemophilia disorder?
There are two types of hemophilia. Type A: A mutation in the factor VIII gene. Type B: A mutation in the IX gene.
What is the type of mutation that causes Leukemia disorder?
It's a gene mutation. And it is different for each organ.
Which type of mutation results when bases added to a gene?
Frameshift ~

What a type of mutation where a base is added to a gene?
i don't know and i just ask you
Jumping gene occur in what type of mutation?
It wrong if it for e2020 it A).transposition
