![Page 35: UNIT IV Chapter 12 DNA and RNA. DNA and RNA I. DNA- deoxyribonucleic acid A. History of DNA as Genetic Material “code of life” 1. Griffith and Transformation](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062518/5697bf931a28abf838c8fc6b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
III. MutationsMutations- - changes in the DNA sequence that affect genetic information
A. Gene MutationsGene Mutations- results from changes in a single gene
1. Several types- most involve a mistake in only one nucleotide
2. Point mutationsPoint mutations- occurs at a single point in DNA sequence. Generally changes only one amino acid
![Page 36: UNIT IV Chapter 12 DNA and RNA. DNA and RNA I. DNA- deoxyribonucleic acid A. History of DNA as Genetic Material “code of life” 1. Griffith and Transformation](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062518/5697bf931a28abf838c8fc6b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

![Page 38: UNIT IV Chapter 12 DNA and RNA. DNA and RNA I. DNA- deoxyribonucleic acid A. History of DNA as Genetic Material “code of life” 1. Griffith and Transformation](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062518/5697bf931a28abf838c8fc6b/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
C. Gene RegulationGene Regulation- how does organism “know” when to turn a gene on or off?
1. Genes are “turned off” by presence of a repressor proteinrepressor protein (produced by regulator gene)
![Page 39: UNIT IV Chapter 12 DNA and RNA. DNA and RNA I. DNA- deoxyribonucleic acid A. History of DNA as Genetic Material “code of life” 1. Griffith and Transformation](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062518/5697bf931a28abf838c8fc6b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
3. Presence of certain chemicals (e.g.- lactose in E. ecoli ) bind to site on repressor protein causing it to change shape and “fall off” the DNA molecule.
4. RNA plymerase is allowed to transcribe mRNA molecule to code for protein (e.g. enzymes to break apart lactose molecules)
![Page 40: UNIT IV Chapter 12 DNA and RNA. DNA and RNA I. DNA- deoxyribonucleic acid A. History of DNA as Genetic Material “code of life” 1. Griffith and Transformation](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062518/5697bf931a28abf838c8fc6b/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
D. Regulation and Development- especially important in shaping the way a complex organism develops from single fertilized cell.
1. Hox genesHox genes- controls organs and tissues that develop in various parts of the embryo
a. Mutation in one of these “master control genes” can completely change organs that develop in specific parts of the body
b. Genes tell cells in the body which organs and structures they should develop into as the body grows.
2. Mutations may have led to drastic and quick evolutionary changes
![Page 41: UNIT IV Chapter 12 DNA and RNA. DNA and RNA I. DNA- deoxyribonucleic acid A. History of DNA as Genetic Material “code of life” 1. Griffith and Transformation](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062518/5697bf931a28abf838c8fc6b/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Mutations affecting the hox genes in the fruit fly, Drosophila, for example, can replace the fly’s antennae with a pair of legs growing right out of its head!
