Gene Mutations

A change in a gene, group of genes or chromosome that results in a change in the proteins

• Replication

• Mutations

• Translation

• Transcription

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS1-1

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

One nucleotide base is changed so only one amino acid

is affected

• Substitution Mutation

• Point Mutation

• Translocation

• Inverse Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS1-1

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A point mutation where one nucleotide base replaces an original nucleotide base

• Inversion Mutation

• Chromosomal Mutation

• Translocation

• Substitution Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A substitution mutation that has no effect

on amino acids sequence

• Insertion Mutation

• Translocation

• Silent Mutation

• Deletion Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A mutation that results in an amino acid change

• Translocation

• Homeostasis

• Silent Mutation

• Expressed Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS1-1

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A nucleotide base is inserted or deleted shifting the entire DNA sequence. Entire protein will be changed.

• Substitution Mutation

• Silent Mutation

• Frameshift Mutation

• Translocation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A frameshift mutation where a nucleotide base

is removed from the DNA sequence.

• Deletion Mutation

• Substitution Mutation

• Translocation

• Silent Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A frameshift mutation where a nucleotide base is added

to the DNA sequence

• Insertion Mutation

• Deletion Mutation

• Substitution Mutation

• Chromosomal Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

Mutations that involve parts of or all of

a chromosome

• Replication

• Deletion Mutation

• Chromosomal Mutation

• Transcription

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-1

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A point mutation where DNA adenine (A)

is replaced by thymine (T) resulting in a single amino acid change during translation(affects blood cell

shape and function)

• Encephelitis

• Hemophilia

• Sickle Cell Anemia

• Influenza
