Resource summary

Mutations
  1. various sorces
    1. lead to changes in the amino acid sequence
      1. can change cell function
      2. not all mutations cause problems
        1. if hydrophobic amino acid changes to hydrophobic, no drastic change
      3. nonsense
        1. early stop codon
          1. shinks protein
        2. silent
          1. changes nucleotide that doesn't change amino acid specified codon
            1. changes genotype not phenotype
            2. missense
              1. changes nucleotide that does change amino acid specified codon
                1. change in primary structure of protein
                2. frameshift
                  1. addition/deletion of a nucleotide
                    1. reading frame is shifted massive missense
