  1. Gene – Expression – Mutation - polymorphism

  2. How are genes expressed ? DNA Transcription Pre-mRNA Cap Poly(A) Splicing Lariat intron mRNA Cap Poly(A) Degradation Nucleus mRNA transport Translation Cytoplasm Ribosome PROTEIN

  3. MUTATION Mutation is a change in the nucleotide sequence of genome, caused by a replication error or by a mutagen. Mutagen  a chemical or physical agent that can cause a mutation in a DNA molecule

  4. The cause of mutations • Spontaneouserror in replication that evade proofreading function of the DNA polymerases that synthesize new polynucleotides • mismatches

  5. 1. Error in replication

  6. 2. Effect of mutagen

  7. Mutation : In-frame mutation maintain reading frame (codon is intact) Out of frame/frameshift mutation  disrupt reading frame • Point mutation • Deletion • Insertion • Duplication

  8. Point mutation common (single site mutation) : replace one nucleotide with another • Divided into two catagories: • Transitions : are purine-to purine or pyrimidine-to-pyrimidine changes : AG, GA, CT, or TC. • Transversions : are purine-to-pyrimidine or pyrimidine-to-purine changes: AC, AT, GC, GT, CA, CG, TA or TG

  9. Point mutation: Single nucleotide change - deletion - insertion - missense - nonsense (create a stop codon) - silent (no amino acid alteration)

  10. Point mutation : Missense Missense Silent

  11. Polymorphism:  Different nucleotide sequence that occurs in the population as a whole Deletion Insertion Duplication Missense Silent Patient (+) Control (-) Patient (+) Control (+) Mutation Polymorphism Most polymorphism occurs in intronic sequence
