Frameshift Mutation:

  • A frameshift mutation is the alteration in the reading frame of the DNA due to the addition/deletion of one or two nucleotides.
  • This type of mutation moves the mRNA sequence one or two bases forwards or backwards which disrupts the three base codons sequence required for translation into proteins.
  • The CT at the end of the sequence is indicative of a frameshift in the DNA reading frame.
  • Frameshift mutation affect all amino acids in a polypeptide chain as all codons are moved one or two steps forwards or backwards.
