  1. Mutations:Changing DNA SBI4U Biology

  2. Mutations: Changes in the quantity or composition of DNA in a cell Changes in number or structure of chromosomes Spontaneous Induced Mutagens = UV, X Rays, other radiation; chemicals; heavy metals

  3. Gross Chromosomal Large scale changes to chromosomes: Deletion = loss of an entire portion of chr. Translocation = section of a chr. breaks off & reattaches incorrectly elsewhere Inversion = section of a chr. breaks off & reattaches upside down Aneuploidy = incorrect number of chromosomes Trisomy = extra chromosome (2n +1) Monosomy = missing chromosome (2n -1) Triploid = 3n, Tetraploid = 4n

  4. Gross Chromosomal

  5. Gross Chromosomal

  6. Trisomy & Monosomy

  7. Point Mutations: Small scale changes to DNA & genes: Point = replacing a single nucleotide, affecting a single amino acid in the polypeptide. Silent = coding changes, amino acid remains same. Missense = coding changes, new amino acid Chaintermination = mutation makes a coding triplet become a STOP codon; translation stops early, protein too short. Nonsense = mutations makes a STOP codon a regular codon; translation keeps going, protein too long.

  9. Point Mutations:

  10. Frameshift Mutations: Sometimes, a small change has big effects, as in these cases: Insertion Frameshift = adding an extra nucleotide; changes how you read the codons in mRNA by shifting everything one ‘letter’ over to the right Deletion Frameshift = removing a nucleotide; changes how translation happens in mRNA by shifting everything one ‘letter’ to the left.

  11. Frameshifts:

  12. Frameshifts:

  13. Mutation Examples: I LOVE HER SO MUCH I COULD MARRY HER. Silent: I LOVE HER SO MUCH I COULD WEDHER. Missense: I LOVE HER SO MUCH I COULD PUNCH HER.

  14. Mutation Examples: I LOVE HER SO MUCH I COULD MARRY HER. Chain Termination: I LOVE HER SO MUCH I COULD. Nonsense: I LOVE HER SO MUCH I COULD MARY HERE THIRST PINK UTAH MONGOOSE LABEL WINE FLIRT LAVA LAMP TOOL BARGE MAPLE NOSE HAIR RITZ CRACKER CONSPIRACY GONG SHOPPING SPREE WIT’S END NEVADA WONDERFUL SQUID RICE KANGAROO CELEBRATE WART…
