Mutation - Overview Mechanism of mutation Spontaneous Induced Duplication/Insertions Mechanism (example: lacI) Fragile X syndrome Repair of mutation Bypass replication Excision repair Mismatch repair
Mutation and its Avoidance Thrust Parry DNA damage Base substitution Base mimicry Intercalation Reversal of lesion Bypass of lesion General excision pathway Specific excision pathway Mismatch repair pathway
Routes to Mutation DNA Damage UV Pyrimidine dimers T-T C-T T-C
Repair Strategy #1 Reversal of mutation Light DNA photolyase
Repair Strategy #2 Bypass of mutation DNA Polymerase III Faithful Error-correcting SOS response Induced by DNA damage Elicits repair enzymes Recruits DNA Pol I
Repair Strategy #2 Bypass of mutation SOS-induced genes Modified DNA Polymerase III Resourceful Innovative
Repair Strategy #2 Bypass of mutation When in doubt, A Modified DNA Polymerase III Resourceful Innovative • 5'-AGATTGACCTAGAT3'-CCTAACTGGATCTATTGTAA • 5'-AGATTGACCTAGATAACATT3'-CCTAACTGGATCTATTGTAA • 5'-AGATTGACCTAGAT3'-CCTAACTGGATCTATCGTAA • 5'-AGATTGACCTAGATAACATT3'-CCTAACTGGATCTATCGTAA
Study Question 9 Bypass replication across pyrimidine dimers generally produces which kind of base substitution: Transitions? Transversions?
Transitions vs Transversions Transition: G A AC C T Purine Purine; Pyrimidine Pyrimidine Transversion: G TT G CCC C A C C G Purine Pyrimidine; Pyrimidine Purine
Study Question 9 Bypass replication across pyrimidine dimers generally produces which kind of base substitution: Transitions? Transversions?
Study Question 10 DNA Pol I mutant is viable. Mutation rate is lower in mutant. If viable and lower mutation rate, why have Pol I???
Routes to Mutation Base modification • Exposure to chemical mutagen • Reaction with base to change base pairing HNO2 G A G T C G A G TC T C A G C T C A U • Replication of modified base
