Sicklecell anemia is caused when a mutation results in the replacement of glutamate with valine. Which type of mutation is observed here?

The mutation that results in the replacement of glutamate with valine in sickle cell anemia is a missense mutation. This type of mutation occurs when a single nucleotide change in the DNA sequence leads to the substitution of one amino acid for another in the resulting protein. In this case, the specific change involves the codon for glutamic acid being altered to code for valine, which affects the hemoglobin structure and function.
