Genetic Mutations SDK October 27, 2014 OBJECTIVES By the end of this session the student should be able to: Define Mutation Frequency of mutations in normal individuals Classify different types of mutation Explain the mechanism of mutation Explain the role of mutation in biodiversity Explain how mutations can cause severe diseases Give examples of deletions, duplications, and insertions in genes Define trinucleotide repeat expansions and how they cause neurological diseases SDK 2012 2 What is a gene mutation? Replacement or change of a nucleotide base with another, in one or both strands, or addition or deletion of a base pair in a DNA molecule . Mutations are changes in genetic material(Nitrogenous bases) – changes in DNA code – thus a change in a gene(s) In gene mutations, the DNA code will have a base (or more) missing, added, or exchanged in a codon. SDK 2012 3 Gene mutation out come • Mutations can lead to missing or malformed proteins, and that can lead to disease. SDK 2012 4 Types of Mutations Germ-line mutations .Mutations that are inherited from parents are called germ-line mutations. Acquired mutations. Mutations that are acquired during your lifetime are called acquired mutations Some mutations happen during cell division, when DNA gets duplicated. Still other mutations are caused when DNA gets damaged by environmental factors, including UV radiation, chemicals, and viruses. SDK 2012 5 How common are mutations? Mutations occurs at a frequency of about 1 in every 1 billion base pairs Everybody has about 5-10 potentially deadly mutations in our genes- in each cell of our body! SDK 2012 6 When everyone has mutations, Why they are not always seen Diseases by because just one of a •They Most genetic diseases arecopy recessive, areinherited notcaused always seen the mutation which means that ainperson must inherit defective gene are not manifested with the may have occurred a section of DNA thattwo copies of the mutated gene to inherit a exception ofdoesn’t make a protein. disorder. Huntington's disease, which is rare and • This is one reason are that marriage between afflicted carriers more likely toclose die relatives is discouraged; two genetically before reproducing. similar adults are more likely to give a child two copies of a defective gene. SDK 2012 7 Mutations Outcome The affected gene may still function. Mutations may be harmful. Mutations may be beneficial. Mutations may have no effect on the organism. Mutations are a major source of genetic variation in a population increasing biodiversity. SDK 2012 8 Beneficial Mutations HIV - Virus, Genetics 1. Basic Structural Components The HIVirus is consists of two basic components: Envelop Genome Envelop The HIV envelope has projections known as spikes, which contain specific chemical components (GP120 & GP 41) that may assist the virus when it attaches to other cells. Genome, Two SS RNA P32 Integrase P 10 Protease P64 Reverse Transcriptase A bullet shape protein component that surrounds the genome called a Capsid. capsid gives the virus its shape and protects the genome. The capsid is made up of subunits called capsomeres HIV Binding to the Host Cell The HIV joins the host cell by spike on HIV envelope and binding site on the host cells. On the host cell such as T-lymphocyte, macrophage, or brain cell two binding sites are there – A CD4 molecule ( a primary receptor) – Co-receptors (CXCR4 & CCR5) – CCR5 (Beta chemokine receptor) – CXCR4 (alpha chemokine receptor) – These second receptors loops through the cell membrane 7 times and is critical for infection to occur] Beneficial Mutations HIV - Virus, Genetics • About 10% of Caucasians of Western European descent have the mutation for chemokine receptorCCR5-▲32 making them resistant to HIV. SDK 2012 11 Mutations a cause of Biodiversity SDK 2012 12 Does all mutations passed on to next generation? NO Only mutations in gametes (egg & sperm) are passed onto offspring(Germline Mutation). Mutations in somatic cells (body cells) only affect the body in which they occur and are not passed onto offspring. SDK 2012 13 Brain Work 1 A mutation may happen in any gene. TRUE OR FALSE? TRUE SDK 2012 14 Spontaneous and Induced Mutations Spontaneous: Occur spontaneously without obvious reason. Induced mutations: caused by mutagens. Mutagens are the agent that causes the DNA code to change (mutate) X-Ray, Chemicals, UV light, Radiation, etc SDK 2012 15 Brain Work 2 Which of the following may cause mutations? A. B. C. D. Coffee UV light (sun light) Hair gel Vaccines UV Light (Sun Light) SDK 2012 16 Types of Mutations 1. Point mutations. A point mutation is a simple change in one base of the gene sequence. • Original • Point Mutation The fat cat ate the wee rat. The fat cat ate the wet rat. 2. Frame shift mutations. one or more bases are inserted or deleted Original. Frame Shift T h e f a t c a t a t e t h e we e r a t The fat caa tet hew eer at SDK 2012 17 Morphological Types of Point mutations 1. Transitions. Transitions occur when a Purine is converted to a purine (A to G or G to A) Pyrimide is converted to a pyrimidine (T to C or C to T) 2. Transversion. A transversion results when Purine is converted to a pyrimidine (A to C or G to T) Pyrimidine is converted to a purine. (T to A or C to G) SDK 2012 18 Types of Mutations according to their effects on the protein (or mRNA). Silent Mutations. Mutation in a codons that produce same amino acid. These mutations affect the DNA but not the protein. Therefore they have no effect on the organism’s phenotype. CUU CUC Missense Mutations. Missense mutations substitute one amino acid for another. Example. HbS, Sickle Cell Hemoglobin, is a change in the beta-globin gene, where a GAG codon is converted to GUG. GAG GUG Nonsense mutations. convert an amino acid into a stop codon. The effect is to shorten the resulting protein. Sometimes this has only a little effect, however, often nonsense mutations result in completely non-functional proteins. UUU UAA\ UGA SDK 2012 19 SDK 2012 20 Frame-shift In a frameshift mutation one or more bases are inserted, or deleted. Because our cells read our DNA in three letter words, adding or removing one letter changes each subsequent word. This type of mutation can make the DNA sequence meaningless . For example: Original= T H E FAT C AT AT E T H E W E E R AT FRAMESHIFT= T H E FAT C A A T E T H E W E E R AT. SDK 2012 21 Brain Work 3 Mutations are a natural part of the cellular process reproduction. The cell has tools that catch and repair 99.9% of mutations. TRUE OR FALSE? TRUE SDK 2012 22 Brain Work 4 Most mutations are caught and repaired in the cell. TRUE or FALSE? TRUE SDK 2012 23 Classical Types of Point mutation Mutations Point mutation occurs when the base sequence of a codon is changed. (ex. GCA is changed to GAA) There are 3 types: •Substitution •Deletion •Insertion SDK 2012 Also called frameshift mutations 24 Substitution A substitution is a mutation that exchanges one base for another (i.e. a change in a single “chemical letter” such as switching an A to G. For example: CTGGAG CTGGGG SDK 2012 25 Substitution Mutations Normal DNA: CGA – TGC – ATC Alanine – Threonine - stop Mutated DNA: CGA – TGC – TTC Alanine – Threonine - Lysine What This iswill a substitution happen to the the mutation amino What The has adenine happened was replaced to DNA? with acids? thymine SDK 2012 26 The cat ate the rat The hat ate the rat SDK 2012 27 Clinical Examples SDK 2012 29 Sickle Cell Anemia • Sickle cell anemia is the result of a (substitution) point mutation in codon 6 of the -globin gene resulting in the substitution of amino acid glutamic acid by valine SDK 2012 30 Sickle Cell Anemia Under conditions of low oxygen tension, such as Following exercise or In an atmosphere containing a low oxygen level, The following changes occur: The haemoglobin agglutinates to form insoluble rod-shaped polymers Red blood cells become distorted and sickle-shaped The sickle-shaped cells rupture easily causing haemolytic anaemia The sickle shaped cells tend to block capillaries interfering with the blood flow to various organs. SDK 2012 31 Thalassaemia Substitution of C by U in mRNA that is coding globin chain of 146 amino acid. Resulted in the formation of a stop signal UAG in place CAG of glutamate in codon number 39. This result in a shortened globin chain containing only 39 instead of the normal 146 amino acids in the -globin protein chain. This protein is functionally useless and is equivalent to absence of -globin gives clinical symptoms of thalassaemia, SDK 2012 32 Thalassaemia SDK 2012 33 Thalassemias Beta thalassaemia is a genetic disorder in which there is lack of beta globin. It may be the result of: Deletion of the whole gene so that beta globin cannot not produced (designated o ) Deletion of the promoter region so that transcription cannot occur (designated o ) Deletion of a large part of the gene resulting in a grossly abnormal or reduced synthesis functional protein (designated + ) SDK 2012 34 Clinical Features of -Thalassaemia Haemoglobin A (α2 2) cannot be produced Hb F (α2 g2) is produced even in adults Hb A2 (α 2 d2) formation is increased Eerythrocytes are microcytic (small) due to lack of normal haemoglobin Erythrocytes rupture easily causing severe haemolytic anaemia, requiring repeated blood transfusions The bone marrow expands trying to compensate by increasing haemopoiesis. SDK 2012 35 Clinical Features of -Thalassaemia The bones of the face and skull are thickened causing a characteristic facial appearance The spleen and liver enlarge because haemopoietic tissue forms in them Excess iron accumulates in the blood and is deposited in the heart, liver, pancreas and other organs (this is because of repeated transfusions while no blood is actually lost from the body) Children have delayed growth and development and are prone to repeated infections SDK 2012 36 Point Mutation In alpha-Globin Gene “Elongated α Globin Chain, Haemoglobin Constant spring \Wayne Hb” Here the stop codon UAA at position 142 in the alpha (-) globin gene was substituted by the codon for glutamine. Translation of the protein thus continued until a stop codon was encountered at codon 173. The -globin was considerably elongated, resulting in a variant of haemoglobin termed Haemoglobin Constant spring\ Wayne Hb. SDK 2012 37 Elongated α Globin Chain Or Haemoglobin Wayne SDK 2012 38 Insertion Insertions are mutations in which extra base pairs are inserted into a new place in the DNA.
