lagatoriininen

Lagatoriininen is a term used in the field of genetics and molecular biology to describe a specific type of mutation in the DNA sequence. The term is derived from the words "laga," meaning "to lag" or "to delay," and "torii," meaning "gate" or "threshold." The mutation is characterized by the insertion of a nucleotide sequence that disrupts the reading frame of the genetic code, leading to a frameshift mutation. This type of mutation can result in the production of a non-functional protein or a protein with altered function, depending on the specific context and the severity of the frameshift.

Lagatoriininen mutations are often associated with genetic disorders and diseases, as they can lead to significant changes in the structure and function of proteins. The term is used to describe the specific mechanism by which these mutations occur, and it is an important concept in the study of genetic variation and its impact on health and disease. The term is not widely used in the scientific literature, but it is a useful way to describe this type of mutation in a concise and informative manner.
