Mutation - Coggle Diagram

- - - - nonsense
        
        changes RNA into stop codon
        
        polypeptide gets shorter
        
        dysfunctional proteins
      - Silent
        
        subtitution doesnt have any effect on the encoded protein
        
        different nucleotide pairs, same amino acid
      - missense
        
        causes frameshift mutation
        
        amino acid turns into a different acid
        
        1 wrong codon and 1 wrong acid in polypeptide
    - - addition/loss of one or more nucleotide per DNA strand.
        
        Frameshift mutation
    - - more than 1 nucleotide breaks off, and turns 180 degrees then reattached to DNA.
