Abase sequence reads aagtcg before a mutation. which could be the base after a frameshift mutation occurs? agtcg aagtcg aggtcg aactgac

Answer;

AGTCG

Explanation;

-Frameshift mutations are insertions or deletions in the genome that are not in multiples of three nucleotides. They are a subset of insertion-deletion mutations that are specifically found in the coding sequence of polypeptides. Here the number of nucleotides that are added or removed from the coding sequence are not multiples of three. They can arise from extremely simple mutations such as the addition or removal of a single nucleotide.

-Frameshift mutations do not include substitutions where a nucleotide replaces another. In substitution mutations, the polypeptide only changes by a single amino acid.
