Silent Mutation
A nucleotide change occurs at the DNA level but does not result in a structural change to the protein.
Conservative Missense
A single base change substitutes one amino acid for another with similar chemical properties (e.g., serine to threonine).
Non-Conservative Missense
A single base change substitutes one amino acid for another with different chemical properties, altering the protein’s function.
Nonsense
A single nucleotide change converts an amino acid codon into a STOP codon, halting protein synthesis prematurely.
Frameshift
Addition or deletion of nucleotides shifts the reading frame, altering the downstream amino acid sequence.
Substitution (Transition/Transversion)
Transition: Purine to purine or pyrimidine to pyrimidine. Transversion: Purine to pyrimidine or vice versa.
