A frameshift mutation (also called a framing error or a reading frame shift) is a genetic mutation caused by indels (insertions or deletions) of a number of nucleotides in a DNA sequence that is not divisible by three.
They are frameshift mutations. A frameshift mutation alters the âreading frameâ of the DNA sequence and changes all the amino acids in the protein product after the point of mutation. Substitution mutations merely replace one base with another.Because the genetic code is redundant some substitutions will have no effect at all. frameshift mutation alters the âreading frameâ of the DNA sequence and changes all the amino acids in the protein product after the point of mutation.
