  2. Silent mutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silent_mutation

    One silent mutation causes the dopamine receptor D2 gene to be less stable and degrade faster, underexpressing the gene. A silent mutation in the multidrug resistance gene 1 , which codes for a cellular membrane pump that expels drugs from the cell, can slow down translation in a specific location to allow the peptide chain to bend into an ...

  3. Synonymous substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synonymous_substitution

    A synonymous mutation can affect transcription, splicing, mRNA transport, and translation, any of which could alter the resulting phenotype, rendering the synonymous mutation non-silent. [3] The substrate specificity of the tRNA to the rare codon can affect the timing of translation, and in turn the co-translational folding of the protein. [1]

  4. Mutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutation

    In biology, a mutation is an alteration in the nucleic acid sequence of the genome of an organism, virus, or extrachromosomal DNA. [1] ... then it is called silent ...

  5. Nonsynonymous substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonsynonymous_substitution

    A nonsynonymous substitution is a nucleotide mutation that alters the amino acid sequence of a protein.Nonsynonymous substitutions differ from synonymous substitutions, which do not alter amino acid sequences and are (sometimes) silent mutations.

  6. Single-nucleotide polymorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-nucleotide_polymorphism

    An example would be a seemingly silent mutation in the multidrug resistance gene 1 , which codes for a cellular membrane pump that expels drugs from the cell, can slow down translation and allow the peptide chain to fold into an unusual conformation, causing the mutant pump to be less functional (in MDR1 protein e.g. C1236T polymorphism changes ...

  7. McDonald–Kreitman test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDonald–Kreitman_test

    A site in a protein-coding sequence of DNA is nonsynonymous if a point mutation at that site results in a change in the amino acid, resulting in a change in the organism's phenotype. [3] Typically, silent mutations in protein-coding regions are used as the "control" in the McDonald–Kreitman test.

  9. Missense mutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missense_mutation

    In genetics, a missense mutation is a point mutation in which a single nucleotide change results in a codon that codes for a different amino acid. [1] It is a type of nonsynonymous substitution . Substitution of protein from DNA mutations
