Mutations
Categories of Mutations by Type
•
•
•
•
•
Deletions
Inversions
Insertions
Duplications
Point mutations
– Change of a single nucleotide in the DNA
• Nucleotide change – transition or transversion
• Single nucleotide insertion
• Single nucleotide deletion
Categories of Mutations by Affect
• Regulatory
– Affect production or steady state levels of gene
product
• promoters, splicing sequences, ribosome binding sites
• Structural (Coding)
– Affect actual sequence of gene product
• point mutations within coding sequence
• Silent
– a change in DNA sequence that has no detectable
affect on gene expression or gene product function
• SNP – single nucleotide polymorphisms
Point Mutations in Coding Sequences
Missense – changes amino acid
Nonsense – creates stop codon
Frameshift – alters remainder
of reading frame results in
completely different amino
acid sequence.
Base Changes
• Transitions
–
–
–
–
pyrimidine replaces pyrimidine - C to T or T to C
purine replaces purine – G to A or A to G
GC changed to A=T or vice versa
Most common base change
• Transversion

Tautomeric Base-Pairing
Normal
amino-A = keto-T
amino-C  keto-G
Tautomeric
imino-A = amino-C
amino-A = imino-C
enol-T  keto-G
keto-T  enol-G
Tautomeric Shifts Alter Base-Pairing Specificity
