Three of the most common types of mutations are: 1 POINT MUTATION (one If a point mutation changes the amino acid, it's called a MISSENSE mutation
•Chromosomal rearrangements: affect many genes at one time within coding sequence can have several different outcomes Universal genetic code
affected gene, or silent mutations, which confer no change to the encoded protein because different codons can specify the same amino acid
3 Describe some common chromosomal mutations: inversions, deletions, duplications, fusions, fissions Name the two basic kinds of point mutations
Types of Gene Mutations Point Mutations A point mutation or substitution is a genetic mutation where a single nucleotide base is changed
Types of Mutations Point Mutations : A mutation in which a single base-pair is changed Missense Mutation: A different amino acid is produced
Mutations are changes in the genetic material; There are two basic types of Chromosomal mutations - mutations that produce changes in whole chromosomes
There are several types of mutation: DELETION (a base is lost) Mutated DNA Sequence #3: T A C A C C T T A G C G A C G A C T What's the mRNA sequence?
2 types: Gene Chromosomal Gene mutation: This change in the 3rd base of the codon is a point mutation, yet the amino acid would remain the same
