This worksheet explains DNA mutations: deletions and insertions cause frameshifts; substitutions can be silent, missense, or nonsense. It shows how mutations change amino acids and includes sickle cell anemia as an example of a missense mutation.

NAME * " F ' ' Mutations Worksheet
Deletion. Insertion & Substitution
* inThere are several types of mutation y ..1 - —
DELt 1LON (a base is lost/ deleted)
INSERTION (an extra base is added/irserted)
— Deletion A insertion may cause what s called a FRAMESHIFT mutation, meaning the reading " f r a m e "
charges, thus changing the amino acid sequence from this point forward
SUBS 11 1UTION (one base is substituted for another)
— I f a substitution changes the amino acid, its called a MISSENSE mutation
— I f a substitution does not change the amino acid, its called a 5ILENT mutation
— I f a substitution changes the amino acid to a "stop," it's called a NONSENSE mutation
\ Complete the boxes below. Classify each as Deletion, Insertion or Substitution A ND os either
frameshift, missense, silent or nonsense (Hint; Deletion A Insertion will always be frameshift).
