3. Mutations Defined
• A mutation is a change in a DNA base pair or a chromosome.– Somatic mutations affect only the individual in which they
arise.– Germ-line mutations alter gametes, affecting the next
generation.
• Mutations are quantified in two different ways:– Mutation rate is the probability of a particular kind of
mutation as a function of time (e.g., number per gene per generation).
– Mutation frequency is the number of times a particular mutation occurs in proportion to the number of cells or individuals in a population (e.g., number per 100,000 organisms).

4a. Types of Point Mutations
• There are two general categories of point mutations: base-pair substitutions and base-pair deletions or insertions.
• A base-pair substitution replaces one base pair with another. There are two types (Figure 7.3):

• Base-pair substitutions in ORFs are also defined by their effect on the protein sequence. Effects vary from none to severe.
4b. Types of Point Mutations

• Deletions and insertions can change the reading frame of the mRNA downstream of the mutation, resulting in a frameshift mutation.

5. Reverse Mutations and Suppressor

6. Spontaneous and Induced Mutations
• Most mutations are spontaneous, rather than being induced by a mutagen.
• Spontaneous Mutations• All types of point mutations can occur spontaneously
during S, G1, and G2 phases of the cell cycle
• The spontaneous mutation rate in eukaryotes is between 1024 and 1026 per gene per generation
• In bacteria and phages it is between 1025 and 1027 per gene per generation.
• Many spontaneous errors are corrected by the cellular repair systems and so do not become fixed in DNA.

9. Induced Mutations
• Exposure to physical mutagens plays a role in genetic research, where they are used to increase mutation frequencies to provide mutant organisms for study.

10a. Chemical Mutagens
• Chemical mutagens may be naturally occurring or synthetic. They form different groups based on their mechanism of action: – Base analogs– Base-modifying agents – Intercalating agents

11. Environmental Mutagens
• A wide variety of chemicals exist in our environment, and many have mutagenic effects that can lead to genetic diseases and cancer. Examples include:– Drugs.– Cosmetics.– Food additives.– Pesticides. – Industrial compounds.
• To be mutagenic, the chemical must enter the cell’s nucleus.
• Metabolism sometimes converts chemicals from a nonmutagenic to a mutagenic form.
