• Reading frame — In biology, a reading frame is a contiguous and non overlapping set of three nucleotide codons in DNA or RNA. There are 3 possible reading frames in a mRNA strand and six in a double stranded DNA molecule due to the two strands from which… …   Wikipedia

• Open reading frame — In molecular genetics, an open reading frame (ORF) is a DNA sequence that does not contain a stop codon in a given reading frame[1]. Normally, inserts which interrupt the reading frame of a subsequent region after the start codon, cause… …   Wikipedia

• Frameshift mutation — A frameshift mutation (also called a framing error) is a genetic mutation caused by indels, ie. insertion or deletion of a number of nucleotides that is not evenly divisible by three from a DNA sequence. Due to the triplet nature of gene… …   Wikipedia

• frameshift — As used in genetics : a mutation that causes a sequence such that the reading frame groups of three bases in mRNA become out of register; the insertion or deletion of one or two bases, for example, would lead to an altered grouping of three bases …   Medical dictionary

• Frameshift — A directed change in translational reading frames that allows the production of a single protein from two or more overlapping genes. The process is programmed by the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA and is sometimes also affected by the secondary… …   Wikipedia

• frameshift — adjective Date: 1967 relating to, being, or causing a mutation in which a number of nucleotides not divisible by three is inserted or deleted so as to change the reading frame of some triplet codons during genetic translation • frameshift noun …   New Collegiate Dictionary

• frameshift mutation — a mutation resulting from an insertion or deletion in a coding sequence that is not an exact multiple of 3 base pairs, so that from the point of mutation onwards, the codons are read out of phase; the reading frame of the gene is changed, and a… …   Medical dictionary

• frameshift mutations — Mutations arising from the loss or gain of a base or DNA segment, leading to a change in the codon reading frame and thus a change in the amino acids incorporated into protein …   Dictionary of microbiology

• frameshift mutation — A mutation that changes the reading frame of a DNA, either by the insertion or the deletion of nucleotides. Because of the triplet nature of codons, this occurs if the number of nucleotides involved is not a multiple of three …   Glossary of Biotechnology

• Translational frameshift — Translational frameshifting or ribosomal frameshifting refers to an alternate process of protein translation. Normally, a protein is translated from one end of the template to the other, generally from the 3 to the 5 end (or 5 to 3 ends of the… …   Wikipedia
