Describe the three types of Mutations?

The three major types of mutations generally are point mutation, insertion, and deletion. Point Mutation - This is when one base is substituted or changed into another base. Typically it changes from a purine to a purine, or pyrimidine to pyrimidine Insertion - A base is inserted into the DNA sequence shifting all of the other bases. Deletion - A base is deleted from the DNA sequence shifting all of the other bases.

Which of the following types of mutation resulting in an error in the mRNA just after the AUG start of translation is likely to have the most serious effect on the polypeptide product?

A frameshift mutation, such as an insertion or deletion of a nucleotide, that occurs just after the AUG start codon is likely to have the most serious effect on the polypeptide product. This is because frameshift mutations shift the reading frame of the mRNA sequence, causing all subsequent codons to be read incorrectly, leading to a completely altered polypeptide sequence.

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 are the three types of mutation?

The three types of mutations are substitution (a single nucleotide is replaced with a different one), insertion (an extra nucleotide is added to the DNA sequence), and deletion (a nucleotide is removed from the DNA sequence).

What is the most common type of mutation?

The most common type of mutation is a point mutation, where a single nucleotide base is changed, inserted, or deleted in the DNA sequence. This can result in a different amino acid being incorporated into the protein during translation, leading to potential changes in the protein's function.
