Mutation is any change in a gene or chromosome?
mutations
What is isogenic mutation?
Isogenic mutation refers to a genetic mutation that occurs in an organism's DNA, resulting in a change in a specific gene or genes. It is called isogenic because it affects only a specific gene in an otherwise identical genetic background. This type of mutation is often used in research to study the effects of a single gene mutation without any additional genetic variability.
How is it possible for gene with a mutation in coding region to encode a polypeptide with the same amino acid sequence as the nonmutant gene?
If the mutant codon still codes for the same amino acid (a silent mutation). For example: GUU, GUC, GUA and GUG all code for the amino acid Valine. So if the mutation changed the codon from GUU to GUA - Valine would still be produced and therefore the polypeptide will be identical.
As a result of the incorrect sequence of amino acids will be translated into a protein-resulting in a mutation?

What describes a mutation that occurs within a gene?
A mutation that occurs within a gene is known as a gene mutation. This type of mutation can involve changes in the DNA sequence, such as substitutions, insertions, or deletions of nucleotides. These alterations can affect the protein encoded by the gene, potentially altering its function, stability, or expression levels. Depending on the nature of the mutation, it may lead to neutral, beneficial, or harmful effects on the organism.
A change in a gene is called?
A mutation
Is Huntington's Disease a gene mutation?
No, it's caused by a single point mutation of a gene.
What is the effects of mutation?
A mutation is a permenent in DNA sequence of a gene,mutation in a gene's DNA sequence can alterthe aminoacid sequence of the protein encodedby the gene.
Is Huntington's disease caused by a gene mutation or a chromosomal mutation?
Huntington's disease is caused by a gene mutation, specifically in the HTT gene on chromosome 4.
A mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called a(an)?
Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.
Is achondroplastic dwarfism a gene malfunction or mutation?
it is a mutation of the gene FRG3 in chromosome 4
Mutation is any change in a gene or chromosome?
mutations
Which mutation would not change the remainder of the reading frame of a gene sequence that follows the mutation?
A silent mutation, where a nucleotide substitution results in a codon that codes for the same amino acid, would not change the remainder of the reading frame of a gene sequence. This is because the amino acid sequence produced by the altered codon remains the same.
Whats a change in gene or chromosome?
A change in a gene could involve a mutation that alters the DNA sequence, affecting the function of the protein it codes for. A change in a chromosome could involve alterations in the structure, number, or distribution of genetic material, leading to genetic disorders or diseases.
What can gene mutations be caused by?
A gene mutation can be caused by radiation. A gene mutation can also be inherited from family members, such as grandparents and parents.
What is a gene mutation what is a chromosomal mutation?
a gene is passed on from generations and a chromosome is just found in certain cells
What is isogenic mutation?
Isogenic mutation refers to a genetic mutation that occurs in an organism's DNA, resulting in a change in a specific gene or genes. It is called isogenic because it affects only a specific gene in an otherwise identical genetic background. This type of mutation is often used in research to study the effects of a single gene mutation without any additional genetic variability.
