Identify the Point mutation from the following DNA sequence:ATG CCA AAT
|
ATG TCA AAT
|
|
ATG CCT AAA T
|
|
ATC CA AT
|
|
ATG CCA AAT
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -DNA sequencing can be used to verify the mutation after any of these techniques. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) is an electrophoretic method to identify single base changes in a segment of DNA. Separation techniques on which DGGE is based were first described by Fischer and Lerman.
Detailed explanation-2: -These groupings are divided into silent mutations, missense mutations, and nonsense mutations.
Detailed explanation-3: -A substitution mutation changes the codon CCC to CCA, both of these codons code for Proline.
Detailed explanation-4: -Mutations can be of many types, such as substitution, deletion, insertion, and translocation.
