If the mutated sequence is present in the patient's genome, the probe will bind to it and flag the mutation.

If a mutation occurs within a gene, the new allele may affect the trait that the gene controls, altering the phenotype of the organism.

If this color change is advantageous, the chance of this butterfly surviving and producing its own offspring are a little better, and over time the number of butterflies with this mutation may form a larger percentage of the population.

If a new mutation reduces their susceptibility to an antibiotic, these individuals are more likely to survive when next confronted with that antibiotic.

If a mutation results in greater replication and survival, the mutant genotype may out-compete the parent genotype and come to dominate the species.

If the mutation rate is zero, there is no exchange by mutation, and each sequence is its own species.

If the mutation rate is too high, exceeding what is known as the error threshold, the quasispecies will break down and be dispersed over the entire range of available sequences.

If the struck molecule is DNA it can show a spontaneous mutation.

If testing shows that parent is a CFTR gene mutation carrier, the other parent is tested to calculate the risk that their children will have CF.

If a family has a known uncommon mutation, specific screening for that mutation can be performed.

If that mutation occurs in a coding sequence, it almost always leads to inactivation of the protein it encoded.

If two likely causative mutations are detected in patients in Tier 1 or one mutation carriers in Tier 1, then the testing stops.

If a mutation that conveys resistance to one of the drugs being taken arises, the other drugs continue to suppress reproduction of that mutation.

If two genotypes, for example one with the nucleotide G and another with the nucleotide A in the same position, have the same fitness, but mutation from G to A happens more often than mutation from A to G, then genotypes with A will tend to evolve.

If selection would favor either one out of two mutations, but there is no extra advantage to having both, then the mutation that occurs the most frequently is the one that is most likely to become fixed in a population.

If lissencephaly is suspected, chorionic villus sampling can test for some lissencephaly variants, but only those with a known genetic mutation.

If a genetic test finds a change in DNA that has not been associated with a disorder in other people, it can be difficult to tell whether it is a natural polymorphism or a disease-causing mutation.

If he had stipulated that the name was a formal name, governed by rules of nomenclature, then his spelling would have been an orthogonal mutation and one would simply correct the spelling in subsequent publications ( e. g. Straminopiles ).

If the mutation is in the same gene as the original mutation it is known as intragenic suppression, whereas a mutation located in a different gene is known as extragenic suppression.

If, conversely, tin is used to coat steel, when a breach of the coating occurs it actually accelerates oxidation of the iron.

If a cerebral AVM is detected before a stroke occurs, usually the arteries feeding blood into the nidus can be closed off to avert the danger.

If suppuration occurs, it may need needle aspiration.

If this occurs, the referee separates the opponents and orders them to continue boxing.

If an injury occurs, one caver stays with the injured person while the other two go out for help, providing assistance to each other on their way out.

If this occurs, the oil will burn and has to be replaced.

If no bulk flow occurs in an element of length dx, the rates of diffusion of two gases A and B must be equal and opposite, that is.

If we choose the shape of the control volume such that all flow in or out occurs perpendicular to its surface, then the flow of matter into the system performs work as if it were a piston of fluid pushing mass into the system, and the system performs work on the flow of matter out as if it were driving a piston of fluid.

If deactivation occurs during the first reading, the reader does not need to undergo deactivation in the second reading.

If a seizure lasts longer than 5 minutes, or if more than one seizure occurs without regaining consciousness emergency medical services should be contacted.

* If a leap occurs, it must be small and immediately countered by stepwise motion in the opposite direction.

If the guessing player suggests a letter which occurs in the word, the other player writes it in all its correct positions.

If the value being sought occurs k times in the list, and all orderings of the list are equally likely, the expected number of comparisons is

If bad weather occurs during flowering, the Merlot vine is prone to develop coulure.

If unsuccessful, nothing interesting occurs.

If surviving Linear B clay tablets can be trusted, the name po-se-da-wo-ne (" Poseidon ") occurs with greater frequency than does di-u-ja (" Zeus ").

If there is still a tie for first place, a jump-off occurs to break the tie.

If this occurs, then the vice president will assume the presidential powers and duties as acting president ; however, the president can declare that no such inability exists and resume the discharge of the presidential powers and duties.

If the former occurs, then any subsequent measurement performed by Bob, in the same basis, will always return 1.

If the latter occurs, ( Alice measures 1 ) then Bob's measurement will return 0 with certainty.

If an interrupt occurs that makes a high priority task ready during the insertion of a low priority task, that high priority task can be inserted and run immediately before the low priority task is inserted.

If the full moon occurs on a Sunday, Easter is the following Sunday.

If the full moon occurs on a Sunday, Easter is the following Sunday.

If one throws a die once, it is difficult to predict the outcome, but if we repeat this experiment many times, we will see that the number of times each result occurs divided by the number of throws will eventually stabilize towards a specific value.
