Mutations

Mutations. Mutate. A change in a cell which changes a trait. Usually a change in a gene sequence: …AACTAGGG A CATTTACG… …AACTAGGG C AATTTACG… Can also be a gene loss. Mutations. Causes: Radiation e.g. UV Chemical e.g. Cigarette Smoke Spontaneous Types:

MUTATIONS

MUTATIONS. WHAT HAPPENS IF DNA HAS ERRORS?!!!. What is the relationship between an organism’s DNA and protein specificity?. DNA becomes a specific part of the protein structure DNA determines the ribosomal RNA sequence that becomes part of the protein structure

MUTATIONS!

MUTATIONS!. Part One. MUTATIONS: WHAT ARE THEY ?. MUTATIONS:. are changes in the genetic material of the cell. can occur at the level of an individual DNA strand ( a point mutation ) or to an entire chromosome ( a chromosomal mutation ). MUTATIONS:.

MUTATIONS

MUTATIONS. Fitness of Mutations. The fitness of a mutation describes its value to the survival and reproductive success of the organism. A mutation may turn out to be: Lethal : Many mutations are lethal and embryos are non-viable .

Mutations. Monday November 5 th. What you need to know. A change in the DNA, or the genetic code of a cell, is called a mutation. Mutations can be classified as beneficial, neutral (cause no effect), or harmful . Harmful mutations may cause cancer

Mutations. Gene Mutations. Mutations that result in changes to a single gene. Point Mutation. One base pair in the DNA sequence is copied incorrectly. Sickle Cell Anemia. Normal vs. Sickle Cell. Normal DNA: {TAG}{CTT}{ATT} RNA: {AUC}{GAA}{UAA} Sickle Cell

Mutations

Mutations. The fat cat ate the wee rat ???. Point Mutation. = a simple change in one base of the gene sequence. This is equivalent to changing one letter in a sentence, EXAMPLE: where we change the 'c' in cat to an 'h': Original - The fat cat ate the wee rat.

Mutations. Start a New Page Add it to your TOC. Thesunwashotbuttheoldmandidnotgethishat. This is (kind of) like a strand of DNA. Each letter represents a base (A,C,T,G). The sun was hot but the old man did not get his hat. It has meaning when we break it into groups of three.

Mutations!. Types of Mutations . Point Mutations: one base is changed Substitutions Insertions Deletions Both Insertions and Deletions are also called frameshift mutations because the codons are not read correctly Mutations can happen in both DNA and in RNA. Mutations.

Mutations. DNA Mistakes. DNA is a molecule that replicates, works and copies with very high accuracy DNA has enzymes that make sure that it works with a high level of accuracy and detail DNA can often work without mistake. DNA Mistakes. DNA can however make mistakes
