Universal Genetic Code
Each codon (three nucleotide bases) code for a single amino acid. The chart below shows the mRNA Codons and the amino acids they code for.

How do mutations occur?

• Mutations can occur naturally during DNA replication (slow process: it takes many (thousands of generations) for the naturally occurring mutations to develop and spread.
• Mutagens......(oh so scary)

Chromosomal Mutations
Modern Genetics SB.notebook January 19, 2018
Mutations in specific genes cause specific genetic disorders. The mutated gene is inherited from the parent(s).
• Sickle Cell Anemia• Cystic Fibrosis• TaySachs Disease• Huntington’s Disease• PKU (Phenylketonuria)
