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.
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.
Is pku a point shirt or a frameshift mutation?
PKU (phenylketonuria) is a point mutation, specifically an autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the PAH gene. This mutation leads to impaired metabolism of the amino acid phenylalanine. It is not a frameshift mutation, which would involve an insertion or deletion of nucleotides, shifting the reading frame of the gene.
What are changes in the bases of DNA?
When a base pair is added or deleted in a DNA sequence it's called an insertion or a deletion, which causes a frameshift mutation.
Which is not a frameshift mutation substitution insertion deletion or point mutation?
frameshift- deletion and insertion point mutation- sustitution
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 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.
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 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.
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.
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.
Which mutation results in a single missing letter in the genetic code?
frameshift mutation: deletion
What are the types of mutations that can occur?
nonsense mutation, missense mutation, frameshift muation, deletion or addition mutation
