how do mutations give you cancer. some mutations of DNA in body cells affect genes that control cell division. describe how point mutations and frameshift mutations affect the synthesis of proteins. Point mutations change only one nucleotide in a codon, therefore only changing one amino acid in a protein. Point mutation does not affect the synthesis of proteins.
As it seems, point mutations are of few types, but the result is always a change in a single nucleotide. The number of the nucleotides is not changed, but the structure will be different; hence, the function of the gene may be altered. What is the difference between Frameshift Mutation and Point Mutation? â¢ The frame of the DNA strand is shifted one way or the other in a frameshift mutation, whereas point mutations do not change the frame of the DNA strand. â¢ The gene structure and the number of nucleotides are changed in frameshift mutations while point mutations cause only the structure of a gene.
