When when a mutation results in no significant change in the production of a of a functional protein?
When a mutation does not change the result of a normal production of a protein is called harmless. This is because it does no harm to the individual.
What mutation stops translation of the mRNA?
The type of mutation that stops the translation of a protein is a nonsense mutation. This occurs when a base substitution (point mutation) results in a STOP codon and thus stops translation of the sequence into a protein.
A genetic mutation that causes a codon that should code for a specific amino acid to be changed into a stop codon results in a shortened protein product and is known as?
a nonsense mutation
What type of mutation could result in a much shorter protein than the original gene product?
the mutation can be a deletion one or even code for a stop, alternatly if can change the stop code and make a longer protein

Meiosis results in the formation of what?
What results in formation of new alleles?
mutation
What results in a regular size protein that is misshapen?
Missense mutation
How can a point mutation alter the final structure of a protein?
In a point mutation, one nitrogen base is substituted for the correct base. Since most amino acids can be coded for by more than one codon, there may be no consequence to this mutation. However, sometimes a point mutation results in an incorrect amino acid being added to the amino acid sequence of the protein. This can cause a change in the shape and therefore function of the protein, which can be a harmful mutation. Two genetic disorders caused by a point mutation are cystic fibrosis and sickle cell anemia.
Which term means a new trait that results from a change in genetic formation?
mutation

A change in the sequence of DNA that results in a protein that is too short?
Nonsense mutation
Most genetic disorders results from a mutation that changes the amino acid sequence in a?
Protein
What mutation stops translation of the mRNA?
The type of mutation that stops the translation of a protein is a nonsense mutation. This occurs when a base substitution (point mutation) results in a STOP codon and thus stops translation of the sequence into a protein.
Is charcot Marie tooth disease a autoimmune disease?
No, it's an inherited disorder. Mutation happen in certain chromosomes affecting the protein formation in axon. The results is a mixed motor and sensory disease with muscle weakness and neuropathy.
A genetic mutation that causes a codon that should code for a specific amino acid to be changed into a stop codon results in a shortened protein product and is known as?
a nonsense mutation
When DNA codes results in formation of protein or RNA product the process is termed what?
Translation
What type of mutation could result in a much shorter protein than the original gene product?
the mutation can be a deletion one or even code for a stop, alternatly if can change the stop code and make a longer protein
