Missense mutation Nonsense mutation Frameshift insertion Frameshift deletion All may cause antibiotic resistance in bacteria
A frameshift mutation in the CARD15 gene
The bacteria benefits.
One example of a beneficial mutation in genetics is the mutation that causes sickle cell anemia. This mutation provides some protection against malaria, making individuals with this mutation less susceptible to the disease.
The disease sickle cell anaemia occurs due to a mutation. This causes the amino acid glutamic acid (which is hydrophilic) in haemoglobin to be replaced by valine (which is hydrophobic).
Sweet potatoes can develop holes inside them due to insect damage or disease, which can create tunnels or cavities within the potato.
There is no single type of mutation that causes Hemophilia A. It is not the type of mutation but rather the location of the mutation within the genetic code.
Most cases of Alexander disease are genetic, caused by a dominant mutation (change) in the glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) gene on chromosome 17.
Deletion Mutation causes DiGeorges Syndrome.
Lethal Mutation.
The specific location of the mutation that causes X-ALD is on the ABCD1 gene on the X-chromosome. Please note that there isn't a specific mutation in the ABCD1 gene that causes X-ALD or can be related in any way to the different clinical presentations of the disease.
This is an example of natural selection, where the mutation provides a survival advantage to the beetles, allowing them to survive and reproduce more successfully than individuals without the mutation. Over time, the frequency of this mutation in the beetle population may increase as it becomes more prevalent in subsequent generations.
