When a mutation occurs outside a gene, it is referred to as a "regulatory mutation" or "non-coding mutation." These mutations can affect gene expression by altering regulatory elements such as promoters, enhancers, or silencers, which control when and how much a gene is expressed. Although they do not change the protein-coding sequence, they can still have significant effects on an organism's phenotype.
This is called an insertion mutation.Some repeats, such as the repeats in the Huntington's gene, can be repeated too many times and then you have the deleterious mutation in this gene.
A mutation that occurs within a gene is known as a gene mutation. This type of mutation can involve changes in the DNA sequence, such as substitutions, insertions, or deletions of nucleotides. These alterations can affect the protein encoded by the gene, potentially altering its function, stability, or expression levels. Depending on the nature of the mutation, it may lead to neutral, beneficial, or harmful effects on the organism.
Isogenic mutation refers to a genetic mutation that occurs in an organism's DNA, resulting in a change in a specific gene or genes. It is called isogenic because it affects only a specific gene in an otherwise identical genetic background. This type of mutation is often used in research to study the effects of a single gene mutation without any additional genetic variability.

Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.

A change in a gene could involve a mutation that alters the DNA sequence, affecting the function of the protein it codes for. A change in a chromosome could involve alterations in the structure, number, or distribution of genetic material, leading to genetic disorders or diseases.

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.
Isogenic mutation refers to a genetic mutation that occurs in an organism's DNA, resulting in a change in a specific gene or genes. It is called isogenic because it affects only a specific gene in an otherwise identical genetic background. This type of mutation is often used in research to study the effects of a single gene mutation without any additional genetic variability.
Such mutations are called point mutation or gene mutation.
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
