A. Overview
1) A mutation is a change in the genome of a cell.

A. Overview
1) A mutation is a change in the genome of a cell.
2) Somatic Mutations:
- can occur during DNA replication prior to mitosis
- can occur during DNA repair
- can be caused by exposure to a mutagen
- if uncorrected, can be passed to daughter cells.
- typically not the source of heritable mutations

- can occur during DNA repair

- if uncorrected, can be passed to daughter cells.
- typically not the source of heritable mutations
3) Germ-line Mutations:
- occur in germ-line cells (tissues that produce gametes or spores)
- occur so early in development, before germ-line cells have
differentiated, that they affect germ-line cells.
- occurs in DNA replication or meiosis, producing mutant gametes/spores
VI. Mutation
A. Overview
3) These “changes in a genome” can occur at four scales of genetic organization:
- Change in the number of sets of chromosomes ( change in ‘ploidy’)
- Change in the number of chromosomes in a set (‘aneuploidy’)
- Change in the number and arrangement of genes on a chromosome
(gene duplications, deletions, inversions, translocations)
- Change in the nitrogenous base sequence within a gene
(point mutations)
Typically, the larger the change, the more
dramatic (and negative) the result
VI. Mutation
A. Overview
B. Changes in Ploidy
- These are the most dramatic changes, adding a whole SET of chromosomes
Triploidy occurs in 2-3% of all
human pregnancies, but almost
always results in spontaneous
abortion of the embryo.
Some triploid babies are born
alive, but die shortly after.
Syndactyly (fused fingers),
cardiac, digestive tract, and
genital abnormalities occur.

B. Changes in Ploidy
- These are the most dramatic changes, adding a whole SET of chromosomes
1. Mechanism #1: Complete failure of Meiosis
- if meiosis fails, reduction does not occur and a diploid gamete is produced. This can occur
because of failure of homologs OR sister chromatids to separate in Meiosis I or II, respectively.

Normal gamete formation is on the bottom, with 1n=2 gametes. The error occurred
up top, with both sister chromatids of both chromosomes going to one pole,
creating a gametes that is 2n = 4.

- if meiosis fails, reduction does not occur and a diploid gamete is produced. This can occur
because of failure of homologs OR sister chromatids to separate in Meiosis I or II, respectively.
- this results in a single diploid gamete, which will probably fertilize a normal haploid gamete,
resulting in a triploid offspring.
-
negative consequences of Triploidy:
1) quantitative changes in protein production and developmental regulation.
2) can’t reproduce sexually; can’t produce gametes if you are 3n.

2) can’t reproduce sexually; can’t produce gametes if you are 3n.
3)
some organisms can survive, and reproduce parthenogenetically (eggs by
mitosis… offspring are clones).
Aspidoscelis uniparens is a
species that consists of 3n
females that reproduce clonally –
laying 3n eggs that divide without
fertilization. It evolved from the
diploid species, A. inornata

that develop into a new 4n species.
Why is it a new species?
How do we define ‘species’?
“A group of organisms that reproduce with one another and are
reproductively isolated from other such groups”
(E. Mayr – ‘biological species concept’)
How do we define ‘species’?
Here, the tetraploid population is even reproductively isolated from its
own parent species…So speciation can be an instantaneous genetic event…

The Frequency of Polyploidy
For reasons we just saw, we might expect polyploidy to occur more frequently in
hermaphroditic species, because the chances of ‘jumping’ the triploidy barrier to
reproductive tetraploidy are more likely. Over 50% of all flowering plants are
polyploid species; many having arisen by this duplication of chromosome number
within a lineage.

source of evolutionary novelty (Ohno hypothesis - 1970)
where do new genes (new genetic information) come from?
Gene A
Duplicated A
generations
Mutation – may even render the protein
non-functional
But this organism is not selected against, relative to others in the
population that lack the duplication, because it still has the
original, functional, gene.
Gene A
Duplicated A
generations
Mutation – may even render the protein
non-functional
Mutation – other mutations may render the
protein functional in a new way
So, now we have a genome that can do all the ‘old stuff’
(with the original gene), but it can now do something NEW.
Selection may favor these organisms.
If so, then we’d expect many different neighboring genes to have
similar sequences. And non-functional pseudogenes (duplicates that
had been turned off by mutation).
These occur – Gene Families
And, if we can measure the rate of mutation in these genes, then we can
determine how much time must have elapsed since the duplication event…
Gene family trees…
