“How does it affect the protein?” Mutations in DNA “How does it affect the protein?”
ID the mutation as either: Substitution Insertion Deletion Remember, this is a CHANGE to the original DNA sequence!
Identify the type of mutation that has occurred: Original ATC TTA GGC CGA New ATC TAA GGC CGA ANSWER : Substitution
Identify the type of mutation that has occurred: Original ATCTTAGGCCGA New ATTAAGGCCGA C ANSWER : Deletion
Identify the type of mutation that has occurred: Original ATCTTAGGCCGA New ATCTTAGAGCCGA ANSWER : Insertion
Identify the type of mutation that has occurred: Original ATCTTAGGCCGA New ATCTATAGGCCGA ANSWER : Insertion
There are FIVE results that can occur DUE to a mutation: Silent mutation Protein unaffected Substitution One amino acid substituted Premature stop STOP coded too early and protein is left short Codon deletion or insertion ONE amino acid is added in or removed from protein Frame shift mutation When a simple insertion or deletion changes the entire sequence of amino acids
Identify the type of mutation that has occurred: Original ATGTTAGGCCGA New ATGTATAGGCCGA Identify the ORIGINAL protein and NEW protein. What resulted from this insertion? FRAMESHIFT
Identify the type of mutation that has occurred: Original ATG TTA GGC CGA New ATG TTA GGC CGG Determine both Original and NEW proteins Substitution – What results from this? SILENT MUTATION
Identify the type of mutation that has occurred: Original ATGTTGATAGGA New ATGTTGATTGGA What results from this Substitution? Premature STOP
