3 When and how do mutations happen?

4 DNA polymerases are not perfect: DNA polIII error rate =~ 1 x 10 -7

5

6 Minimizing polymerase error

7 Polymerase slippage leads to indels

8 Slippage can get progressively worse

9 Mutagens and other -agens

10 Chemical mutagens

30 Recognizes distortion of DNA double helix

31 Similar concept for eukaryotes; TFIIH helicase is used; transcription coupled repair

32 Base mismatch: who is right?
