Identify the type of mutation associated with the following questions and statements. Some answers may be used more than once.
Premises:
The mutation in the keratin gene in sphynx cats causes a change in the intron-exon splice site and is an example of which type of mutation?
What type of mutation occurred if the sequence GGACTCCTCCTCAGA is changed to GGACTCCTTCCTCAGA?
If UUA codes for leucine (leu), UUU codes for phenylalanine (phe), AUU codes for isoleucine (iso), AAA codes for asparagine (asn), and UAA codes for a stop codon, which type of mutation would be responsible for changing the protein sequence from leu-phe-iso-iso-stop to leu-phe-leu-phe-asn-stop?
Which type of mutation replaces glutamic acid with valine in beta globin proteins in individuals with sickle-cell anemia?
A deletion in the beta globin gene leads to this type of mutation, causing beta-thalassemia.
What type of mutation is least likely to alter the amino acid sequence?
Responses:
i nsertion only
d eletion only
f rameshift mutation
