Spontaneous mutations are those that happen naturally no specific agents are associated with their occurence. Induced mutations result from the influence of any artificial factor various forms of radiation a wide spectrum of chemical agents biological agents (e.g. Viruses) gametic vs. Somatic mutations mutation arising in somatic cells are not transmitted to future generations mutations in gametes or gamete-forming tissue are of greater significance because they are transmitted to offspring as part of the germ line.

gametic vs. somatic mutation lethal or conditional mutation Classification of the mutation Spontaneous mutations are those that happen naturally no specific agents are associated with their occurence and they are generally assumed to be random changes in the nucleotide sequences of genes Induced mutations those that result from the influence of any artificial factor various forms of radiation a wide spectrum of chemical agents biological agents (e.g. viruses) Gametic vs. somatic mutations Mutation arising in somatic cells are not transmitted to future generations Mutations in gametes or gamete-forming tissue are of greater significance because they are transmitted to offspring as part of the germ line dominant recessive X-linked Lethal vs. conditional mutations Mutation may interrupt a process that is essential to the survival of the organism - in this case, it is reffered to as a lethal mutation Conditional mutation is present in the genome of an organism, but it is expressed and can be detected only under certain conditions Induced Induced mutagenesis mutagenesis Can be caused by environmentaI agents that damage DNA: UV Iight X- rays and -rays ChemicaI carcinogens e.g. cigarette smoke DNA damage can Iead to mutations unIess it is removed by DNA repair enzymes Unrepaired damage can have serious consequences IMPORTANCE OF DNA REPAIR Hoeifmakers, 2001 Photoactivation Repair in E. coIi Exposing UV treated ceIIs to bIue Iight resuIts in a reversaI of the thymine dimer formation Enzyme, photoactivation repair enzyme (PRE) absorbs a photon of Iight (from bIue Iight) and is abIe to cIeave the bond forming the thymine dimer. Once bond is cIeaved, DNA is back to normaI Excision Excision Repair Repair Conserved throughout evoIution, found in aII prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms Three step process: - 1. Error is recognized and enzymaticaIIy cIipped out by a nucIease that cIeaves the phosphodiester bonds (uvr gene products operate at this step) - 2. DNA PoIymerase I fiIIs in the gap by inserting the appropriate nucIeotides - 3. DNA Ligase seaIs the gap Excision Excision Repair Repair Two know types of excision repair - Base Base excision excision repair repair (BER) (BER) corrects damage to nitrogenous bases created by the spontaneous hydroIysis of DNA bases as weII as the hydroIysis of DNA bases caused by agents that chemicaIIy aIter them - NucIeotide NucIeotide excision excision repair repair (NER) (NER) Repairs "buIky" Iesions in DNA that aIter or distort the reguIar DNA doubIe heIix Group of genes (uvr) invoIved in recognizing and cIipping out the Iesions in the DNA Repair is compIeted by DNA poI I and DNA Iigase Proofreading Proofreading and and Mismatch Mismatch Repair Repair In bacteriaI systems, proofreading proofreading decreases the error rate in DNA repIication by two orders of magnitude - from 1 mismatch in every 105 nucIeotide pairs to 1 in every 107 base pairs Mismatch Mismatch repair repair is another mechanism by which mismatches can be fixed in the DNA strand In bacteria, mismatch repair is based on the process of DNA DNA MethyIation MethyIation, which IabeIs one strand, providing a basis for the mismatch repair. Post Post- -RepIication RepIication Repair Repair Post-replication repair Discovered in by Miroslav Radman Responds when damaged DNA escapes repair and the damage disrupts replication Rec A protein stimulates recombination between donor strand and new strand Creates gap in donor strand which can be repaired DNA Polymerase and DNA Ligase involved Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP): Patients are hypersensitive to UV light; patients often develop malignancies of the skin. Ataxia teIangiectasia (AT): Patients are sensitive to gamma irradiation; patients develop neurological and skin lesions. Fanconi's anemia: Patients demonstrate aplastic anemia, growth retardation, and congenital anomalies; related to a deficiency in repair of DNA cross-links. Diseases in which DNA repair is damage Xeroderma Pigmentosum (XP) and DNA Repair Defects XP is an autosomaI recessive disease associated with dry skin, freckIing, corneaI uIceration, and skin tumors Many patients die before age 30 from metastases of maIignant skin tumors One form of XP is produced by a defect in the human endonucIease that removes pyrimidine dimers Mutations in at Ieast seven other genes invoIved in repairing UV-damaged DNA can cause XP DNA Repair and Clinical Syndromes: Increased Sensitivity; Chromosomal Instability and Increased Cancer Risk Xeroderma Pigmentosum (XP) Symptoms include:
Extreme sensitivity to sunlight
Early onset of skin
cancer XP cases SunIight-induced dermatoIogic abnormaIities in a patient with xeroderma pigmentosum. TypicaI skin manifestation of xeroderma pigmentosum with numerous areas of hypopigmentation and freckIes (ie, soIar Ientigines) with different intensities of pigmentation.

Fanconi anemia (FA) Fanconi anemia (FA) is an autosomaI recessive disease characterized by progressive bone marrow faiIure due to defective stem ceII function. FA ceIIs are hypersensitive to DNA cross-Iinking agents such as mitomycin C (MMC) resuIting in cytogenetic aberrations, G2-M ceII cycIe arrest, apoptosis, and ceII death. Seven compIementation groups (termed FANCA-G) are identified. Group A (FANCA) mutations are the most prevaIent (70%).
The function of the FANC genes are stiII uncIear.
InvoIvement in DNA repair system is suggested. There are at least seven FA genes: A, C, D2, E, F, G and BRCA2
