Biology 2581B Lecture 8: Lecture 8 Allele Classification PPT + NOTES
Document Summary
Alleles like fruitloops alleles come in many flavours No other codon for met no silent mutation there. Missense single base pair substitution consequence depends on type and where. Ex if you change polar aa to another different polar aa probs not a huge change. Change altering the catalytic site will probs terrible for it. If you change something to prolineprobs a big change since poses a kink. Change a codon coding for aa to be a stop. Frameshift impact depends on when mutation occurs. If you have mutation in promoter or terminator since those are regulator proteins (determine how much of protein made, or location) has a detectable effect b/c affects the function or avaliability of protein. If you have mutations on intron exon borfers splicing may occur incorrectly then you will get an insertion of introns. Mutations in non coding regions can effect gene expression increased/decreased protein levels. Depending on mutation is and consequence may have different phenotypes.
