A frameshift mutation results in the insertion or deletion of nucleotides in the DNA sequence, causing a shift in the reading frame during translation. This can lead to a completely different amino acid sequence being produced, often resulting in a nonfunctional or truncated protein. Frameshift mutations can have significant impacts on protein structure and function, leading to genetic disorders or diseases.
What else can I help you with?
Explain how a mutation could have no effect on the organism?
It can have absolutely no affect, a bad affect, or even a good affect.*Deletion and Addition are frameshift: most harmful.
What mutation affects an organism's offspring?
A genetic mutation is a change in an organism's DNA sequence that can be passed on to its offspring and affect their traits or characteristics. Mutations can occur spontaneously during DNA replication, or they can be triggered by external factors like radiation or chemicals.
How mutation can affect in another mutant?
A mutant can be mutated just as any other life form.
How can mutation in a gene affect the traits that an organism has?
The gene will code for a different protein than it should.
A mutation occurs in a cell. Which sequence best represents the correct order of the events involved for this mutation to affect the traits expressed by this cell?
The correct sequence of events for a mutation to affect the traits expressed by a cell is as follows: first, the mutation changes the DNA sequence of a gene. Next, this altered DNA is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA). Then, the mRNA is translated into a protein. Finally, the change in the protein can lead to a modified phenotype or trait expressed by the cell.
How a mutation may not affect an organisms traits?
A mutation does not affect an organism trait for a reason. It is neutral which depends on the environment.
What mutation most likely can affect a cow offspring?
A mutation in egg cells
How mutation can affect a gene?
it changes it
What type of mutation will affect the largest number of proteins produces by an organism?
Chromosomal mutation
What is an example of a good effect from a mutation?
Well a Silent Mutation does not affect anything so it isn't bad so its a good mutation.
How does a mutation in a cell affect an organism?
A mutation in a sex cell means that the mutation can be passed on to the individuals offspring. If the mutation just occurred in a somatic cell, it would not be passed down.
How does a mutation in a sex differ from a from a mutation in a non-sex cell?
A mutation in a sex cell, such as a sperm or egg cell, can be passed on to offspring and affect future generations. In contrast, a mutation in a non-sex cell will only affect the individual and is not passed on to offspring.
Who does somatic mutation affect?
A somatic mutation is one that occurs in any body cell with the exception of the gametes (sperm and eggs). A somatic mutation cannot be passed on to offspring, so it affects only the person with the mutation.
Why does an insertion mutation usually cause defects during protein synthesis than a point mutation?
Insertion mutations can affect many amino acids in the protein.An insertion mutation usually causes more defects during protein synthesis than point mutation because an insertion mutation will affect many amino acids in the protein.
Explain how a mutation could have no effect on the organism?
It can have absolutely no affect, a bad affect, or even a good affect.*Deletion and Addition are frameshift: most harmful.
What is the changes in a DNA sequence that affect genetic information?
Mutation
What is a mutation that affects the gametes of an organism?
A point mutation is a mutation that can affect the gametes of an organism. This type of mutation involves a change in a single nucleotide in the DNA sequence, which can result in altered genetic information being passed on to offspring.
