What Is The Difference Between A Snp And An Entry In A Mutation Database?

This is not really bioinformatics, is it?
Maybe you'll find your answer here:
http://biology.stackexchange.com/questions/39257/effect-of-a-doubling-of-the-start-codon-in-a-gene
That would be called a "start gain" mutation I guess and could indeed lead to a shifted reading frame if the new start codon is out of frame, most likely running in a PTC a bit downstream. But start of translation needs more than just a start codon.
But this is not exactly a bioinformatics question and might be closed for that reason.
Hello jh!
