is deletion and insertion mutation is the type of frameshift mutation
1 answer
Yes, deletion and insertion mutations are types of frameshift mutations. Frameshift mutations occur when one or more base pairs are inserted or deleted from the DNA sequence, causing a shift in the reading frame of the genetic code. Deletion mutations remove one or more nucleotides from the sequence, while insertion mutations add one or more nucleotides. Both types of mutations can result in a significant change in the resulting amino acid sequence of a protein.
