explain how mutations affect protein synthesis Agenda (10) Catalyst (30) Alien Encounters! (10) GN: Mutations (15) Kahoot (15) IP: Mutations (5) Exit Ticket Catalyst What is nondisjunction? How does this differ from a mutation? What is the polypeptide made from the DNA sequence TACCAAGTA? HW: IP: Mutations
2
Mutations A mutation is a change in a DNA sequence.
Mutation leads to genetic VARIATION!
3
How does a substitution affect the overall amino acid sequence?
Types of Mutations How does a substitution affect the overall amino acid sequence? Substitution – one base is swapped out for another.
4
How does an insertion affect the overall amino acid sequence?
Types of Mutations How does an insertion affect the overall amino acid sequence? Insertion – an extra base pair(s) is added into a new place in the DNA
5
How does a deletion affect the overall amino acid sequence?
Types of Mutations How does a deletion affect the overall amino acid sequence? Deletion – Base pairs in the sequence are lost or deleted

Insertions and deletions are called frame shift mutations. DNA is “read” in 3-base codons in/dels change the reading frame A T G A C G T A A A T C G A C G T A A mutation!
