central dogma and mutation

Cards (12)

  • replication - process where dna copies itself
  • transcription - mRNA is synthesized based on dna template
  • gene to mRNA to amino acid t protein
  • translation - mRNA code is decoded for assembling proteins using amino acids
  • deletion - breakage, lost
  • inversion - breaks off, flips around backwards, segment
    reattaches
  • duplication - part is repeated
  • insertion - new sequence inserted into the gene
  • translocation - transferred to different chromosome
  • nondisjunction - failure of chromosomes to separate during meiosis
  • point mutation - includes the deletion, insertion, or substitution of ONE
    nucleotide in a gene
  • frameshift mutations - inserting or deleting one or more nucleotides, proteins are built incorrectly
