Mutations
What Are Mutations?
• Changes in the
nucleotide sequence of
DNA
• May occur in somatic
cells (aren’t passed to
offspring)
• May occur in gametes
(eggs & sperm) and be
passed to offspring
Are Mutations Helpful or
Harmful?
• Mutations happen
regularly
• Almost all mutations are
neutral
• Chemicals & UV
radiation cause
mutations
• Many mutations are
repaired by enzymes
Are Mutations Helpful or
Harmful?
• Some type of skin
cancers and leukemia
result from somatic
mutations
• Some mutations may
improve an organism’s
survival (beneficial)
Types of Mutations
Chromosome Mutations
• May Involve:
– Changing the
structure of a
chromosome
– The loss or
gain of part of
a chromosome
Chromosome Mutations
• Five types exist:
– Deletion
– Inversion
– Translocation
– Nondisjunction
– Duplication
Deletion
• Due to breakage
• A piece of a
chromosome is lost
Inversion
• Chromosome segment
breaks off
• Segment flips around
backwards
• Segment reattaches
Duplication
• Occurs when a
gene sequence is
repeated
Translocation
• Involves two
chromosomes that
aren’t homologous
• Part of one
chromosome is
transferred to
another chromosomes
Translocation
Nondisjunction
• Failure of
chromosomes to
separate during
meiosis
• Causes gamete to
have too many or
too few
chromosomes
Chromosome Mutation
Animation
Gene Mutations
• Change in the
nucleotide sequence
of a gene
• May only involve a
single nucleotide
• May be due to
copying errors,
chemicals, viruses,
etc.
Types of Gene Mutations
• Include:
– Point Mutations
– Substitutions
– Insertions
– Deletions
– Frameshift
Point Mutation
• Change of a single
nucleotide
• Includes the
deletion, insertion, or
substitution of ONE
nucleotide in a gene
Point Mutation
• Sickle Cell
disease is the
result of one
nucleotide
substitution
• Occurs in the
hemoglobin gene
Frameshift Mutation
• Inserting or deleting
one or more
nucleotides
• Changes the “reading
frame” like changing a
sentence
• Proteins built
incorrectly
Frameshift Mutation
• Original:
– The fat cat ate the wee
rat.
• Frame Shift (“a” added):
– The fat caa tet hew
eer at.
