What else can I help you with?
A change in a single nucleotide in DNA-?
A mutation
The substitution addition or removal of a single nucleotide in DNA is called a what mutation?
The substitution, addition, or removal of a single nucleotide in DNA is called a point mutation. This type of mutation can result in changes to the amino acid sequence of a protein, leading to potential functional consequences.
Why is point mutation dangerous?
A frame shift mutation destroys the correct sequence of amino acids from the point of the mutation. The protein produced by a frame shift mutation would more than likely be nonfunctional.
What type of mutation is a point mutation?
A point mutation is when 1 base pair is swapped out for another one... so instead of an A you might find a C... or T... or G. Also an insertion or deletion of a base pair A mutation of a single point :)
Will a point mutation cause the cell to make an incomplete polypeptide if the mutation results in a stop codon?
Yes, a point mutation will cause the cell to make an incompelete polypeptide chain that is non-functional, if the mutation results in a stop codon. This type of a mutation is also called as the Nonsense Mutation.
A change in a single nucleotide in DNA-?
A mutation
A mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called a(an)?
Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.
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
Mutations that change one or just a few of nucleotides in a gene on a chromosome are called what?
the correct answer is C. a substitution i know this cause i have this book to this question and point mutation is not one of the answer and i found the answer in the book -No its substituton you jack wagon your books wrong
What is the product of mutation?
A mutant.
What are mutations that occur at a single point?
Such mutations are called point mutation or gene mutation.
What will the mutation result in if a point mutation will cause the cell to make an incomplete polypeptide?
An inactive/other active protein as a polypeptide that is incomplete will not fold properly. You could get a deleterious mutation that destroys protein product, such as Huntington's disease, or a paint mutation that, in heterozygous condition, such as sickle cell trait, is beneficial.
What process is the protein product of the Ras proto oncogene involved in?
you will have to be more specific There is a point mutation in the k-ras oncogene, and about 60% have a mutation in the p53 so you can develop cancer in the colon by many polyps.
Can a point mutation result in a frameshift mutation?
Yes, a point mutation can result in a frameshift mutation if it occurs in a coding region of a gene and disrupts the reading frame of the genetic code.
A mutation that involves a single nucletiode is called an?
point mutation
Briefly explain how the mutation that protects some humans from HIV infection arose?
How does mutation that protects some humans from HIV infection arose?
The substitution addition or removal of a single nucleotide in DNA is called a what mutation?
The substitution, addition, or removal of a single nucleotide in DNA is called a point mutation. This type of mutation can result in changes to the amino acid sequence of a protein, leading to potential functional consequences.
