Mismatch Repair01:20

Mismatch Repair

5.2K
Organisms are capable of detecting and fixing nucleotide mismatches that occur during DNA replication. This sophisticated process requires identifying the new strand and replacing the erroneous bases with correct nucleotides. Mismatch repair is coordinated by many proteins in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
The Mutator Protein Family Plays a Key Role in DNA Mismatch Repair
The human genome has more than 3 billion base pairs of DNA per cell. Prior to cell division, that vast amount of genetic...

Mutation, Gene Flow, and Genetic Drift

59.4K
In a population that is not at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of alleles changes over time. Therefore, any deviations from the five conditions of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium can alter the genetic variation of a given population. Conditions that change the genetic variability of a population include mutations, natural selection, non-random mating, gene flow, and genetic drift (small population size).

Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs

17.9K
Sequencing of the human genome has opened up several best-kept secrets of the genome. Scientists have identified thousands of genome variations that exist within a population. These variations can be a single nucleotide or a larger chromosomal variation.
Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...

Gene Conversion

9.9K
Other than maintaining genome stability via DNA repair, homologous recombination plays an important role in diversifying the genome. In fact, the recombination of sequences forms the molecular basis of genomic evolution. Random and non-random permutations of genomic sequences create a library of new amalgamated sequences. These newly formed genomes can determine the fitness and survival of cells. In bacteria, homologous and non-homologous types of recombination lead to the evolution of new...

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs

15.8K
A single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP is a single nucleotide variation at a specific genomic position in a large population. It is the most prevalent type of sequence variation found in the human genome. Point mutations that occur in more than 1% of the population qualify as SNPs. These are present once every 1000 nucleotides on an average in the human genome. Replacement of a purine with another purine (A/G) or a pyrimidine with another pyrimidine (C/T) is known as a transition. In contrast,...

Point and Frameshift Mutations01:30

Point and Frameshift Mutations

78
Point mutations are genetic alterations involving the change of a single nucleotide base pair in DNA. Depending on how the alteration affects protein synthesis, they can lead to various consequences.Point mutations fall into the following types:Silent mutations occur when a nucleotide change does not alter the amino acid sequence due to the redundancy of the genetic code. For instance, changing ACC to ACA still encodes threonine, leaving the protein function unaffected. This occurs because...

Resumen

El cruce, o la reproducción sexual, impide la purga de las mutaciones estructurales al atraparlas. Esto desafía la idea de que el sexo siempre mejora la resiliencia genómica.

Área de la Ciencia:

  • Biología evolutiva
  • Genética de las poblaciones
  • La genómica

Sus antecedentes:

  • Las teorías clásicas proponen que el cruce (reproducción sexual) purga las mutaciones dañinas a través de la recombinación.
  • Las variantes estructurales más grandes (inserciones, deleciones, inversiones) pueden impedir la recombinación, formando bloques de enlace.

Objetivo del estudio:

  • Investigar cómo el cruce externo afecta a la purga de las mutaciones estructurales.
  • Desafiar la opinión prevaleciente de que el sexo promueve uniformemente la resiliencia genómica.

Principales métodos:

  • Evolución experimental en las líneas de C. elegans.
  • Secuenciación de todo el genoma para identificar mutaciones.
  • Simulaciones genéticas de poblaciones.

Principales resultados:

  • Las poblaciones que se cruzaron mantuvieron mutaciones estructurales pequeñas y grandes.
  • Se encontraron polimorfismos de nucleótido único atrapados dentro de variantes estructurales más grandes.
  • Las variantes estructurales se acumulan más fácilmente a tasas de cruce más altas.

Conclusiones:

  • El cruce externo puede obstaculizar la eliminación de mutaciones estructurales, contradiciendo las expectativas clásicas.
  • La purga de mutaciones se complica por las variantes estructurales que atrapan a las variantes más pequeñas.
  • El sexo no promueve uniformemente la resiliencia genómica debido a las limitaciones en la purga de mutaciones.
