... Why Use ENU as a Mutagen • ENU is an alkylating agent that is a powerful mutagen in mouse spermatogonial stem cells, producing single locus mutation frequencies of 6 X 10-3 to 1.5 x 10-3, equivalent to obtaining a mutation in a single gene of choice in one out of every 175 to 655 gametes screened. ...

Epistasis
Epistasis is a phenomenon that consists of the effect of one gene being dependent on the presence of one or more 'modifier genes' (genetic background). Similarly, epistatic mutations have different effects in combination than individually. It was originally a concept from genetics but is now used in biochemistry, population genetics, computational biology and evolutionary biology. It arises due to interactions, either between genes, or within them leading to non-additive effects. Epistasis has a large influence on the shape of evolutionary landscapes which leads to profound consequences for evolution and evolvability of traits.
