He then asked news organizations to tally up the number of Americans killed through terrorist attacks in the last decade and compare it with the number of Americans who have died in gun violence.
In molecular biology, a reading frame is a way of dividing the sequence of nucleotides in a nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) molecule into a set of consecutive, non-overlapping triplets. Where these triplets equate to amino acids or stop signals during translation, they are called codons.
Frameshift Mutations. A frameshift mutation is a mutation caused by an insertion or deletion, which causes a shift in the translational reading frame. Frameshift mutations have a more dramatic effect on the polypeptide than missense or nonsense mutations.
