1
Q
What are the types of mutations
A
Substitution
Deletion
2
Q
Why can deletion cause issues
A
Results in all triplets in a sequence being read differently and incorrect amino acids formed
3
Q
Why can substitution cause issues
A
Can result in a single changed amino acid that can change the tertiary structure
4
Q
Why may substitution cause no issues
A
Due to the degenerative code or substitution may occur in an intron
