1 maj 2019 · A deletion mutation is a mistake in the DNA replication process which removes nucleotides from the genome. A deletion mutation can remove a single nucleotide, or entire sequences of nucleotides.
Very rarely, incorrect bases are incorporated or bases omitted from a DNA strand during synthesis. Such mistakes can lead to spontaneous substitutions, insertions or deletions. For example, strand slippage due to the formation of a loop.
Purine dimers are much less common. UV-induced dimerization usually results in a deletion mutation when the modified strand is copied. Another type of UV-induced photoproduct is the (6-4) lesion in which carbons number 4 and 6 of adjacent pyrimidines become covalently linked (Figure 14.9B).

Deletions involve the loss of DNA sequences. Phenotypic effects of deletions depend on the size and location of deleted sequences on the genome. For instance, deletions that span a centromere...
