"It has a seven point mutation, which explains why it's killing people."

This can be caused by a single point mutation or multiple mutations.

There are multiple ways for point mutations to occur.

Most proteins can withstand one or two point mutations before their functioning changes.

Specific point mutations are made and the transcription of the gene is then measured.

The scientific theory of evolution is greatly dependent on point mutations in cells.

The rate for other forms of mutation also differs greatly from point mutations.

Apart from point mutation, another way in which oncogenes can be activated is by over expression.

The existence of a number of point mutations have also been found:

These properties of the genetic code make it more fault-tolerant for point mutations.

Sickle Cell anemia is a disease caused by a point mutation.

At the lowest level, point mutations affect individual nucleotides.

Over 100 single gene point mutations have been described, of which at least 26 are specific to protease inhibitors.

The term point mutation also includes insertions or deletions of a single base pair.

A single point mutation can change the whole DNA sequence.

This rare form of cancer is associated with a tyrosine point mutation on r564:chromosome 9p6.

Mitochondrial point mutations do not limit the natural lifespan of mice.

Ras point mutations are the single most common abnormality of human proto-oncogenes.

Such changes are called point mutations.

Other types are inversion and floating point mutation.

Point mutations may have only minor effects.

Some he classified as deletions, others as point mutations.

A point mutant is an individual that is affected by a point mutation.

Point mutations in multiple tumor suppressor proteins cause cancer.

It is a single point mutation in this gene that causes abnormal calcium channels within the muscle.
