Loss of function or null (in the case of complete loss) is the term used for the mutation in a gene that often results in a reduction of the product of that gene.

A mutation is a change or modification in the nucleotide sequence of an organism's genome that may change the genetic message carried by the gene.

Loss of function or null mutation:

  • It is a mutation that leads to the loss of the function of the protein produced by the mutated gene.
  • It may reduce the protein function of the produced by mutated gene as well
  • The recessive gene mutation causes such mutation.

Thus, the correct term for such mutation is - loss of function or null (in the case of complete loss)
