A mutation is a change in the DNA sequence of an organism. Mutations can result from errors in DNA replication during cell division, exposure to mutagens or a viral infection.2
Mutation
A mutation is a change in the DNA’s nucleotide sequence.
An abrupt shift in the nucleotide sequence causes an organism’s morphological traits to change. Such a change is referred to as a mutation if it is heritable.
So, mutation is defined as any heritable change in the sequence of nucleotide of DNA.
Features
Change in number- it is the change in the number or arrangement of nucleotide sequence of a gene.
It is heritable change in the DNA sequence.
Permanent structural change inherited material DNA effects
Can be harmful/beneficial or have no effects.
Can be sometimes attributed to random chance events.

This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

2 Case Reports of Gastric Ultrasound
2. INTRODUCTION
• Term mutation was given by Devries in 1901 while
studying evening primerose Oenothera lamarckiana
• Most of these were chromosomal variations
• Some were point variations
• Originally the term mutation was given to both
chromosomal as well as point mutations.
• Recently chromosomal mutations are studied
separately.
• The term mutation is now given only to point
mutations.
3. DEFINITION
• Any sudden change occurring in
hereditary material is called as mutation.
• They may be harmful, beneficial or
neutral.
• A mutation is defined as an inherited change
in genetic information.
4. TYPES OF GENES MUTATIONS
• Number of ways to classify gene mutations:
– On the basis of the molecular nature of the
defect.
– On the nature of the phenotypic effect-- amino
acid sequence of the protein is altered or not.
– On the basis of the causative agent of the
mutation.
5. TYPES OF MUTATIONS
TWO TYPES OF MUTATION OCCURS IN NATURE
• SOMATIC MUTATION
• GERM LINE MUTATION
Somatic mutations
• Arise in the somatic cells.
• Passed on to other cells through the process of mitosis.
• Effect of these mutations depends on the type of the cell in which
they occur & the developmental stage of the organism.
• If occurs early in development, larger the clone of the mutated
cells.
6. GERM LINE MUTATION-
• They occur in the cells that produce gametes
• Passed on to future generations
• In multicellular organisms, the term mutation is
generally used for germ line mutations
7. MUTAGENS RESPONSIBLE FOR
MUTATION
The physical and chemical agent that caused
mutation is known as mutagen.
Chemical mutagen
Alkylating agent
Base analogs
Methylating agent
DNA intercalating agent
DNA crosslink agent
Reactive oxygen species (ROS)
10. On the basis of causative agent types of
mutations
Spontaneous mutations:
• Mutations that result from natural changes in DNA.
• Spontaneous mutation contain depurination and deamination
for a particular base are two common chemical event that
produces spontaneous mutation.
Induced mutations:
• Results from changes caused by environmental chemicals &
radiations.
• Any environmental agent that increases the rate of mutation
above the spontaneous is called a mutagen such as chemicals
& radiations.
15. Base modifying agents
These are chemicals that act as mutagens
by modifying the chemical structure and
properties of bases.
Three types of mutagens that work in this
way: 1)deaminating agent
2)hydroxylating agent
3)an alkylating agent
16. Alkylating agent
These are naturally occuring and human made
highly reactive chemicals that alter the structure of
DNA and cause mutations.
e.g. Ethylmethane sulphonate(EMS) and mustard
gases, MMS.
They donate an alkyl group to amino and keto
groups in nucleotides.
EMS alkylates the keto group in no 6 position of
guanine and in number 4 position of thymine.
18. Hydroxylating agent
Hydroxylamine is a mutagen that reacts
specifically with cytosine ,modifying it by
adding a hydroxyl group (OH) so that it
pair with adenine instead of guanine.
19.
20. Base analogs
• Base analogs are bases that are similar to those
normally found in DNA .
• The base analogs pair with a different base in
DNA.
• One base analog mutagen is 5- bromouracil,
which has a bromine residue instead of methyl
group of thymine.
• In normal states,5BU resembles thymine and
pairs with adenine in DNA.
21. • In rare states, it pairs with guanine
• Not all base analogs are mutagens.
• For e.g. AZT(azidothymidine) ,an approved drug
given to patients with AIDS, is an analog of
thymidine.
• It is not a mutagen because it does not base pair
changes.
23. Intercalating agent
• Intercalating agent inserts itself between
adjacent base pairs of the DNA strand that
is template for new DNA synthesis.
• An extra base is inserted into the new DNA
strand opposite the intercalating agent.
• After one more round of replication ,during
which the intercalating agent is lost ,the
overall result is a base pair addition
mutation.
24. • If the intercalating agent inserts itself into
the new DNA strand in place of a base
,then when that DNA helix replicates after
the intercalating agent is lost.
• The result is a base pair deletion mutation.
• If a base pair addition or base pair deletion
point mutation occurs in a protein coding
gene, the result is a frameshift mutation.
• E.g. proflavin,acridine and ethidium
bromide
26. Radiation
• Radiation occurs in non-ionizing or ionizing
forms.
• Ionization occur when energy is sufficient to
knock an electron out of an atomic shell and
break covalent bonds.
• Except for UV light ,non ionizing radiation
does not induce mutations.
• But all forms ionizing radiation ,such as X
rays, cosmic rays and radon can induce
mutation.
27. Effect of UV radiation
• UV radiation promotes the formation of
covalent bonds between adjacent thymine
residue in a DNA strand ,creating a
cyclobutyl ring.
• They form abnormal chemical bond
between adjacent pyrimidine molecule
(mainly thymine) in the same strand of the
double helix.
28.
29. • Ionizing radiation penetrates tissue, colliding
with molecules and knocking electrons out
of orbits ,creating ions.
• The ion can result in the breakage of
covalent bonds, including those in the sugar
phosphate back bone of DNA.
• Ionizing radiation is the leading causes of
gross mutation in humans.
• High dosages of ionizing radiation kill cells
so use in treating some form of cancer.
30. Spontaneous generation of addition and deletion mutants by DNA
looping-out errors during replication
35. DNA damaged by free radicals
A free radical is any species capable of
independent existence that contains one or
more unpaired electrons.
They are unstable, very reactive and
short-lived as they tend to catch an
electron from other molecules.
36. DNA Modification
• Free radicals induce several types of DNA damage
including
– strand breaks,
– DNA-protein cross-links
– and a large range of base and sugar modifications.
• Of the free radicals the highly reactive hydroxyl
radical (.OH) is the most prominent in the
development of base and sugar modifications.
• DNA damage also occurs through reactive nitrogen
species undergoing mainly nitration and deamination
of purines
37.
38.
39. Mutations on the basis of the Phenotypic
effects of mutations:
Most common phenotype in natural
populations of the organism is called as
wild type phenotype.
The effect of mutation is considered
with reference to wild type phenotype
40. Forward mutation:
a mutation that alters the wild type
phenotype
Reverse mutation (reversion):
a mutation that changes a mutant
phenotype back in to the wild type
41. Missense mutation: a base is substituted that
alters a codon in the mRNA resulting in a
different amino acid in the protein product
TCA
AGT
UCA
TTA
AAT
UUA
Ser Leu LLeeuu
42. Silent mutation: alters a codon but due to
degeneracy of the codon, same amino acid is
specified.
TCA
AGT
UCA
TCG
AGC
UCG
Ser Ser
43. Nonsense mutation: changes a sense codon into
a nonsense codon. Nonsense mutation early in
the mRNA sequence produces a greatly
shortened & usually nonfunctional protein
TCA
AGT
UCA
TGA
ACT
UGA
Ser
Stop codon
44. Neutral mutation: mutation that alters the amino
acid sequence of the protein but does not change
its function as replaced amino acid is chemically
similar or the affected aa has little influence on
protein function.
CTT
GAA
CUU
ATT
TAA
AUU
Leu Ile
45. Loss of function mutations:
Structure of protein is so altered that it no
longer works correctly.
Mutation can occur in regulatory region
that affects transcription , translation or
spilicing of the protein.
Frequently recessive.
Complete or partial loss of the normal
function.
46. Gain of function mutations:
Produces an entirely new trait
Causes a trait to appear in inappropriate
tissues or at inappropriate times in development
Frequently dominant
Conditional mutations:
Expressed only under certain conditions
Lethal mutations:
Cause the death of the organism
47. Suppressor mutation:
Suppresses the effect of other mutation
Occurs at a site different from the site of
original mutation
Organism with a suppressor mutation is a
double mutant but exhibits the phenotype
of un mutated wild type
Different from reverse mutation in which
mutated site is reverted back into the wild
type sequence
