Home Â» Biology Â» Antigenic shift Antigenic shift Antigenic shift is the process by which two different strains of influenza combine to form a new subtype having a mixture of the surface antigens of the two original strains. Because the human immune system has difficulty recognizing the new influenza strain, it may be highly dangerous.
A substitution is a mutation that exchanges one base for another (i.e., a change in a single chemical letter such as switching an A to a G). Such a substitution could: 1  change a codon to one that encodes a different amino acid and cause a small change in the protein produced.2  For example, sickle cell anemia is caused by a substitution in the beta-hemoglobin gene, which alters a single amino acid in the protein produced. For example, sickle cell anemia is caused by a substitution in the beta-hemoglobin gene, which alters a single amino acid in the protein produced. 2  change a codon to one that encodes the same amino acid and causes no change in the protein produced. 3  These are called silent mutations.
