The mutagen nitrous acid replaces amino groups with keto groups, thus converting cytosine into uracil or adenine into hypoxanthine. The pairing of these modified bases leads to a mutation when the strand replicates. (Reprinted with permission from Brooker RJ: Genetics: Analysis & Principles, 3rd ed. New York: McGraw-Hill, 2008.)
