Mutation is a change in the nucleotide sequence of genetic materials whether by substitution, duplication, insertion, deletion, or inversion. Mutations provide genetic variations which are the raw materials of evolution. Mutations are of two type: 1. Spontaneous mutation: Usual mutation under natural conditions.
Genes are segments of DNA located on chromosomes. A gene mutation is defined as an alteration in the sequence of nucleotides in DNA. This change can affect a single nucleotide pair or larger gene segments of a chromosome. DNA consists of a polymer of nucleotides joined together.During protein synthesis, DNA is transcribed into RNA and then translated to produce proteins. Altering nucleotide sequences most often results in nonfunctioning proteins. Silent Mutation: Although a change in the DNA sequence occurs, this type of mutation does not change the protein that is to be produced. 2  This is because multiple genetic codons can encode for the same amino acid. 3  Amino acids are coded for by three nucleotide sets called codons.
