Missense mutation: This type of mutation is a change in one DNA base pair that results in the substitution of one amino acid for another in the protein made by a gene (Figure \PageIndex1).

Embryos from the shallow-water population expressed Pitx in the same groups of cells as the other population, with an important exception: Pitx was not expressed in the pelvic fin primordium in the shallow-water population.

They acknowledged incomplete genome sequencing with many gaps and extensive repetitive DNA.

It highlights the impact of regulatory region mutations on gene expression, using the Pitx1 gene in sticklebacks as an example.
