DNA Sequence Comparisons Analysis

For the results of Abby there was a 97% similarity. There was one base change because there was a change between the A and the T because it should have been a GAG and instead the results was a GTG. This process is called point mutation. I don't think that she has a disease because most of her DNA was the same.

For the results of Bob there was a 97% similarity. There was not enough protein produced once it reached the STOP signal. He has a disease. This process is called truncation mutation.

For the results of Carol there was a 58% similarity. In the frame, she was only missing the T. So, only one changed out of the sequence. She has a disease. This process is called Frame Shift mutation.
