A change in. the content of the genetic messageâthe base sequence of. one or more genesâis referred to as a mutation. Some mu-. tations alter the identity of a particular nucleotide, while. others remove or add nucleotides to a gene.
A mutation is a change in the base sequence of DNA that can affect the structure and function of proteins when they occur within a gene. Mutations can be spontaneously caused by copying errors during DNA replication or induced by exposure to external elements such as chemical mutagens, radiation or viruses. Cystic fibrosis is an example of a disease which can result from a nonsense mutation (this may not be the only cause though). 2  Frameshift mutations occur when the addition or removal of a base alters the reading frame of the gene.
