Descriptor mutación INDEL
Entry term(s) mutación inserción-deleción
mutación por inserciones-deleciones
Scope note: Mutación que toma su nombre de la combinación de inserción y deleción (eliminación). Se refiere a una diferencia de longitud entre dos ALELOS, de la que no puede saberse si originalmente fue causada por una INSERCIÓN DE SECUENCIAS o por una ELIMINACIÓN DE SECUENCIAS. Si el número de nucleótidos en la inserción/deleción no es divisible por tres, y ocurre en una región que codifica una proteína, también es una MUTACIÓN DEL MARCO DE LECTURA.

Scope note: A mutation named with the blend of insertion and deletion. It refers to a length difference between two ALLELES where it is unknowable if the difference was originally caused by a SEQUENCE INSERTION or by a SEQUENCE DELETION. If the number of nucleotides in the insertion/deletion is not divisible by three, and it occurs in a protein coding region, it is also a FRAMESHIFT MUTATION.
