The protein may lose its function, which can result in a disease in the organism. For example, sickle-cell disease is caused by a single pointmutation (a missense mutation) in the beta-hemoglobin gene that converts a GAG codon into GUG, which encodes the amino acid valine rather than glutamic acid.
