A mutation that causes changes in the amino acid sequence downstream of the mutation is called
a point mutation.
a translocation mutation.
a substitution mutation.
a frameshift mutation.
What will be the outcome of deletion of the third base, A, from the DNA sequence below? Assume that the first base corresponds to the start of a codon. (1 pt) (original)
-C-C-A-A-A-T-A-A-A-G-
The first amino acid in this sequence does not change.
A frameshift mutation to chromosomes will cause the amino acid sequence after the mutation to change. Most likely all of the above are correct for the second question.
