The nucleotide change that doesn't affect the amino acid produced is called Silent mutation Frameshift mutation Missense mutation Nonsense mutation
Jenny W.
Suppose that a gene has a mutation that changes the non-mutated gene, this new one nucleotide. Compared to the protein produced from the original protein, it contains a stop codon where an amino acid was previously found. This type of mutation would be classified as a frameshift mutation, degenerate mutation, silent mutation, missense mutation, or nonsense mutation.
