Which type of mutation results in abnormal acid sequence?
A point mutation causes a change in the amino acid sequence creating a new type of protein. The mutations are categorized functionally as nonsense, missense and silent mutations.
If the dNA sequence Tgagccatga is change to tgagcacatga what kind of mutation has occurred?
The sequence TGA-GCC-ATG-A is changed in 2 places to become TGA-GCA-CAT-GA.When one base is changed, it is called a point mutation.In this case, a GCC in the DNA has been changed to a GCA. This would mean the mRNA codon (coded for by this DNA) would change from CGG to CGU.Both of these codons code for the same amino acid - Arginine. Therefore this type of point mutation is known as a silent mutation.The extra C that appears would be called an addition mutation, which is a type of frameshift mutation.
What is a genetic mutation that does not result in a change in the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein?
It is neutral mutation. Codons are made up of 3 base pairs. This gives 64 different combinations, but there are only 20 amino acids, so some different codons will code for the same amino acid. When the base pair that is changed doesn't cause a change in the amino acid it codes for, then ultimately nothing happens
Why does a base substitution mutation in a gene not always result in a different protein?
Substitution mutations can be silent mutations, meaning that although one of the bases has changed, the codon still codes for the same amino acid. For example - if the original DNA was changed from AAA to AAG, the codon would change from UUU to UUC. Both UUU and UUC code for the amino acid phenylalanine - so the resulting protein would be exactly the same. The mutation is therefore called 'silent' because it has no affect.
Do all mutations result in malfunctioning proteins?
No (contrary to previous answer to this question) single base pair mutations, which swap out 1 base for another, say from an A to a G can be a "silent mutation" This means that the 3base "codon" that codes for an amino acid will still code for the same AA. AA's have about 3 different codons that will code for it, usually with the difference being in the last base pair. So for examples lets say AAC and AAT both code for Amino acid X, and the mutation causes the C in sequence AAC to change to a T it becomes AAT, and will still code for amino acid X.... no change in protein structure or function.
What is a A genetic mutation that does not result in a change in the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein is called?
a silent mutation.

What letter is silent in the word nightingale?
the I is slient The "gh" is silent. It only serves to indicate how the preceding 'i' should be pronounced.
How a change in the sequence of nucleotides in a strand of DNA might cause a protein to malfunction?
The sequence of nucleotides is altered and therefore, the amino acid that is to be added to the peptide chain will be altered. hence the protein will be different. This protein can be functionless (will be degraded). If it turns out to be toxic, then there may be symptoms.
Why is silent scream an oxymoron?
An oxymoron is a contradictory figure of speech. A scream can not be silent, as the word itself describes a sound.
What song has a sequence?
One song that has a sequence is 'Silent Night." At the part, "All is calm, all is bright," "All is calm" represents the pattern, and "All is bright" is the sequence. The sequence copies the pattern, but higher or lower than the pattern.

Does change have a long vowel sound?
Yes. The A in change has a long A sound, and the E is silent.
Which type of mutation results in abnormal acid sequence?
A point mutation causes a change in the amino acid sequence creating a new type of protein. The mutations are categorized functionally as nonsense, missense and silent mutations.
A mutation that occurs at a specific location within a nucleotide sequence is called a?
Point mutation and it can be effective or silent depend upon at the site of codon
