Can a point mutation result in a frameshift mutation?

Yes, a point mutation can result in a frameshift mutation if it occurs in a coding region of a gene and disrupts the reading frame of the genetic code.


Which is not a frameshift mutation substitution insertion deletion or point mutation?

A point mutation is not a frameshift mutation. Point mutations involve changes in a single nucleotide base, while frameshift mutations involve the insertion or deletion of nucleotide bases, causing a shift in the reading frame of the genetic code.


What mutation can change every amino acid that follows the point of mutation?

A frameshift mutation, where an insertion or deletion of nucleotides causes a shift in the reading frame of the genetic code, can change every amino acid that follows the point of mutation. This can have dramatic effects on the resulting protein's structure and function.


Can a point mutation be frameshift mutation?

No


What are two types of mutation?

From another angle: beneficial and detrimental.


During DNA replication an extra cytosine base is added to the DNA what type of mutation is this?

A frameshift mutation


What is never a frameshift mutation?

A point mutation is never a frameshift mutation because it involves the substitution of a single nucleotide for another rather than the insertion or deletion of nucleotides that would disrupt the reading frame of a gene.


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.


Name two major types of mutations?

Frameshift mutations and Point mutations. The difference between the two are that point mutations occur at a single point in the DNA sequence and frameshift mutations shift the "reading frame" of the genetic message.


A mutation that involves one or a few nucleotides is called a?

Sorry to burst the persons bubble that said frameshift mutation but its wrong. Point mutation-gene mutation involving changes in one or a few nucleotides. point mutation


Is this mutation caused by a point mutation or frameshift mutation celiac disease?

Celiac disease is primarily associated with specific genetic variations in the HLA-DQ genes, particularly HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8, rather than being caused by a point mutation or frameshift mutation. These variations are typically due to small insertions or deletions that can alter the amino acid sequence, but the disease is more strongly linked to these haplotypes than to a single mutation type. Therefore, while mutations can play a role in the genetic predisposition to celiac disease, it's not accurately characterized solely as a point or frameshift mutation.


What types of mutation results when bases are added to a gene?
