  2. Molecular lesion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_lesion

    DNA is more prone to this, as the transition state in the depurination reaction has much greater energy in RNA. [17] Tautomerization is a chemical reaction that is primarily relevant in the behavior of amino acids and nucleic acids. Both of which are correlated to DNA and RNA. The process of tautomerization of DNA bases occurs during DNA ...

  3. Point mutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_mutation

    In molecular biology, repeat-induced point mutation or RIP is a process by which DNA accumulates G:C to A:T transition mutations. Genomic evidence indicates that RIP occurs or has occurred in a variety of fungi [ 20 ] while experimental evidence indicates that RIP is active in Neurospora crassa , [ 21 ] Podospora anserina , [ 22 ] Magnaporthe ...

  5. Genome editing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genome_editing

    Genome editing, or genome engineering, or gene editing, is a type of genetic engineering in which DNA is inserted, deleted, modified or replaced in the genome of a living organism. Unlike early genetic engineering techniques that randomly insert genetic material into a host genome, genome editing targets the insertions to site-specific locations.

  6. Gene editing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_editing

    Gene editing is the emerging molecular biology technique which makes very specific targeted changes by insertion, deletion or substitution of genetic material in an organism's DNA to obtain desired results. Examples of gene editing are CRISPR, zinc finger nuclease, transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN), oligonucleotide directed ...

  7. Prime editing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_editing

    Collectively, base editing and prime editing offer complementary strengths and weaknesses for making targeted transition mutations. Base editors offer higher editing efficiency and fewer INDEL byproducts if the desired edit is a transition point mutation and a PAM sequence exists roughly 15 bases from the target site. However, because the prime ...

  8. Mutational signatures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutational_signatures

    DNA replication infidelity. DNA proofreading is the process by which DNA polymerase excises an incorrectly incorporated nucleotide via exonuclease enzymatic reaction. Inability of DNA polymerase to correct these replication errors leads to progressive accumulation of mutations through successive cell mitosis. Genotoxins

  9. Insertion (genetics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insertion_(genetics)

    For example, one strategy is double-strand nucleases cutting system, using the normal Cas9 protein with single guide RNA (sgRNA) and then achieving the gene insertion through end-joining or dividing cells with the DNA repair system. [5] Another example is the prime editing system, which uses Cas9 nickase and the prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA ...
