‘There are several types of mutation:
DELETION (a base is lost)
INSERTION (an extra base is inserted)
Deletion and insertion may cause what's called a FRAMESHIFT, meaning the reading “frame”
‘changes, changing the amino acid sequence.
SUBSTITUTION (one base is substituted for another)
Ifa substitution changes the amino acid, i's called a MISSENSE mutation.
Ifa substitution does not change the amino acid, It’s called SILENT mutation.
{fa substitution changes the amino acid to @ “stop,” it's called a NONSENSE mutation,
Part 4: Transcribing and Translating Mutated DNA.
Directions: Complete the boxes below using your knowledge of complementary base pairing and the codon chart in your
notes. Classily each as either a deletion, insertion, or substitution AND as either frameshift, missense, silent or nonsense
(hint: deletion or insertion will always be frameshif})
