Yes. The genetic code after the deletion is essentially nonsense when it comes to building the protein. The amino acid sequence after the deletion will be completely altered, resulting in a poorly functioning or completely nonfunctioning protein, depending on where the deletion occurs.

A chromosomal aberration in which part of a chromosome is lost is known as?
This type of mutation is known as a deletion.
Deletion is when a whole segment of a gene is?
Deletion occurs when a whole segment of a gene is lost.
What is the cause of Cri Du Chat syndrome?
Cri du chat is caused during meiosis (the production of sex cells, such as the egg or sperm) when chromosome number 5 is not aligned correctly when separating and part of chromosome number 5 is chipped of, lost, and not repaired correctly or at all. then this cell merges with the other sex cell and a baby with cri du chat is formed
What disease do the mechanisms that normally control the cell cycle are disrupted?
The cell cycle is disturbed when a mutation causes one or more of the following:A deletion - causing a section of the DNA to be missingA stop - causing a stop signal to form in the DNAA frame shift - causing the DNA sequence to be misaligned
What is a Pseudogene?
A pseudogene is a gene that has been disabled by mutation, and is no longer functional.
A chromosomal aberration in which part of a chromosome is lost is known as?
This type of mutation is known as a deletion.
When a chromosome undergoes a delation mutation information is?
Information is lost.
Where are Kmart corporate offices in Puerto Rico?
A type of genetic mutation in which one or more base pairs are lost: (IS IT REPLACEMENT, SUBSTITUTION, DELETION, INSERTION).
Deletion is when a whole segment of a gene is?
Deletion occurs when a whole segment of a gene is lost.
What is delete anomaly?
A deletion anomaly occurs when data is unintentionally lost due to the deletion of other data

when parts of chromosomes are broken off and lost during mitosis the results is a chromosomal mutation
When parts of chromosomes are broken off and lost during mitosis or meiosis the result is an?
when parts of chromosomes are broken off and lost during mitosis the results is a chromosomal mutation
Does a mutation in a gene affect the order of DNA bases?
A mutation in a gene can happen by addition, deletion or substitution of base pairs. This means that the order of the bases will change- a new base may be added, a base may be lost, or one base may be substituted for another. The result of these mutations is that it causes the DNA to code for a different protein. If a mutation occurs in a sex cell, the mutation can be passed on to an offspring and affect the offspring's phenotype.
How does mutation in a gene affect order in DNA bases?

What happens if asegment of DNA is deleted?
It would be as if a part of a chromosome were lost. This is called a deletion. It can cause a gene to be lost or not expressed. Several genetic disorders are caused by this process.
