A mutation in the DNA that changes the sequence of a codon but does NOT change the amino acid sequence of the protein describes a
Silent mutations
nonsense mutation
Changes a codon to introduce a premature stop codon
point mutation
change a single nucleotide in a mutant gene compared to the normal gene. examples are missense, nonsense, and silent mutations
missense mutation
Changes a single amino acid in a protein
frameshift mutation
Change the number of nucleotides in a mutant gene compared to the normal gene. Examples are insertion and deletion mutations
When comparing a normal and mutant gene sequence, how do you identify a frameshift mutation
The number of nucleotides between the normal and mutant gene sequences is different and the amino acids sequence is different
If the coding (non-template) DNA sequence of a normal gene is 5' GTC GCA TGG TGA 3' what kind of mutation would create the mutant gene sequence 5'GTC, GAC ATG GTG A 3'
Insertion mutation
If the coding (non-template) DNA sequence of a normal gene is 5' GTC GCA TGG TGA 3 ' which DNA sequence would represent a nonsense mutation?
5 GTC GCA TAG TGA 3
If coding (nontemplate) DNA sequence of a normal gene is 5 GTC GCA TGG TGA 3, which sequence would represent a deletion mutation
5 GTC GCA TGT GA3
Which of the following would be considered a point mutation to a DNA strand that consists of a nucleotide sequence 5 CTG ACG TAT CTT AAT 3
5 CTG ACG TAT CTT AAT 3
