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 else can I help you with?
Which kind of mutation is most likely to produce a protein with one extra amino acid?
A frameshift mutation, such as an insertion of one nucleotide, is most likely to produce a protein with one extra amino acid. This type of mutation shifts the reading frame of the genetic code, leading to a change in the entire sequence of amino acids after the mutation site.
The DNA sequence of a gene changed from AACTTG to AACATG. What kind of mutation occurred.?
The DNA sequence of gene that change AACTTG to AACATG are called missense mutation. This is known as a process.
A mistake made during copying of genetic information is called a?
A mistake made during copying of genetic information is called a
A change in a gene is called?
A mutation
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
What kind of mutation is a tumor?
it is a mutation like PLX4032 it reverses the effects of a mutation found in certain tumors
What kind of mutation causes a four leaf clover?
xx and xy genetic mutation.
What kind of mutation will result from the mistake made during DNA replication in the nucleotide sequence?
a nonsense mutation
What kind of mutation does Superman have?
He doesn't have any mutations.
A mutation occurs in an eye cell of a fully grown monkey what will most likely happen to the monkey?
This depends on what kind of mutation occurs. You don't say what the mutation/result of the mutation is, so who knows what will happen to the monkey
What kind of mutation did baby Hayden have?
tay-sachs disease
What are two kinds of frameshift mutation?
There are insertions and deletions (which both count as one kind) and substitutions (the second kind)
What kind of mutation is tag ctt ggc at?
The sequence "tag ctt ggc" provided does not represent a specific mutation. A mutation would involve a change in a specific base or bases within a DNA sequence. Without further context or details, it is not possible to determine the type of mutation.
Which kind of mutation is most likely to produce a protein with one extra amino acid?
A frameshift mutation, such as an insertion of one nucleotide, is most likely to produce a protein with one extra amino acid. This type of mutation shifts the reading frame of the genetic code, leading to a change in the entire sequence of amino acids after the mutation site.
The DNA sequence of a gene changed from AACTTG to AACATG. What kind of mutation occurred.?
The DNA sequence of gene that change AACTTG to AACATG are called missense mutation. This is known as a process.
What kind of cell has to have mutation in order to be passed on to offspring?
The mutation must be present in the Reproductive cell, Ovum/Egg in females (present in the Ovary) and Sperm in males.
What is a change in the base sequence of DNA molecule?
a kind of mutation called deletion or insertion
