What is Understanding Genetic Mutations about?

Genetic mutations are changes in DNA sequence that can be caused by errors in DNA replication or exposure to mutagens. There are two main types of mutations: point mutations, which involve a single nucleotide change, and frameshift mutations, which involve insertion or deletion of nucleotides. Our cells have mechanisms like direct reversal, base excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, and mismatch repair to fix mutations that occur. Unrepaired mutations can cause diseases.
