Genetic changes that are described as de novo (new) mutations can be either hereditary or somatic. In some cases, the mutation occurs in a personâs egg or sperm cell but is not present in any of the personâs other cells. In other cases, the mutation occurs in the fertilized egg shortly after the egg and sperm cells unite.
Genetic mutations occur when DNA changes, altering the genetic instructions. This may result in a genetic disorder or a change in characteristics. Mutations can be caused by exposure to specific chemicals or radiation.
