What will the mutation result in if a point mutation will cause the cell to make an incomplete polypeptide?
An inactive/other active protein as a polypeptide that is incomplete will not fold properly. You could get a deleterious mutation that destroys protein product, such as Huntington's disease, or a paint mutation that, in heterozygous condition, such as sickle cell trait, is beneficial.
What else can I help you with?
A point mutation will cause the cell to make an incomplete polypeptide if the mutation results in?
codon
Will point mutation CAUSE a cell to make an incomplete polypeptide if the mutation results in a stop codon?
Yes it will.
Will a point mutation cause the cell to make an incomplete polypeptide if the mutation results in a stop codon?
Yes, a point mutation will cause the cell to make an incompelete polypeptide chain that is non-functional, if the mutation results in a stop codon. This type of a mutation is also called as the Nonsense Mutation.
How can a mutation in DNA base sequence cause a change in a protein?
dna in a cell needs protein and chromosomes.
What is the name of the radiation that can increase mutation in humans?
There are a number of types of radiation that can cause mutation in humans.Gamma radiation is probably the one you were thinking of, but ultraviolet radiation can also cause mutation.Pretty much any kind of radiation that causes mutation will almost always cause cancer, as a result.
If a mutation changed the DNA code from ctt to att would that cause a problem in the polypeptide chain?
Yes, a mutation that changes the DNA code from ctt to att would likely cause a problem in the polypeptide chain. The original codon "ctt" codes for the amino acid leucine, while the mutated codon "att" codes for isoleucine. This change could alter the structure and function of the resulting protein, potentially leading to a loss of function or gain of an unwanted function, depending on the role of that amino acid in the protein's structure.
How would a protein be changed if a mutation caused a base to be added?
A mutation in which an extra nitrogen base is added is called a frameshift mutation. The rest of the sequence after the mutation will code for different amino acids, which will result in the alteration of the protein. Frameshift mutations cause severe genetic disorders.
Do all mutations in DNA coding for mrna cause a change in an organism?
No. Some mutations can be silent, meaning that they have different codes yet it produces the same protein. If it is a mutation for the start of a mRNA sequence, then the polypeptide will just be discarded if there is no AUG.
What ten causes of mutation are there?
you cause it cause you are weird
What would cause mutation?
Radiation is an main cause
The substitution of one base for another during DNA replication is an example of?
Mutation occurs where one DNA nucleotide base is changed in the process of DNA replication. These mutations may or may not cause genetic disorders or other observable changes in the organism, but they play a huge role in evolution, cancer, and immune system development.
What would happen if the black wire is not there in a plug?
A missing wire would cause an incomplete circuit.A missing wire would cause an incomplete circuit.
