Mutagen treatment greatly increases the mutation rate
Exposure to X-ray, UV light
Chemical treatment: base analogs 5’-bromouracil (=T or rarely C)
hydroxylating agent (add OH-group to C)
alkylating agent such as E!MS (ethylmethane sulfonate)
deaminating agent such as nitrous acid
intercalating agent such as Acridine Orange
Transposons that insert into a gene and disrupt the normal reading frame

Transposon (transposable element) as a mutagen
(1) Retrotransposons
Copia Drosophila
Ty1 Yeast
LINEs Human
LINEs (Alu) Human
(2) Transposons
Ac/Ds Maize
P-element Drosophila
Transposon: DNA segment that can move from one position to another

Ac: activator, autonomous, 4.6 kb long, enocdes a3.5 kb transcript of transposase
Ds: dissociation, non autonomous
-both Ac and Ds have 11 bp inverted repeats at the ends,which function in the transposase recognition
-an 8 bp direct repeat generated from the host genome--footprint
Transposase
Ac/Ds are Maize transposonsAc/Ds can function in other plants

1. T-DNA (transfer DNA) from Agrobacterium tumefaciens Agrobacterium causes crown-gall diseases in plants. This tumor-inducing (Ti)
ability is linked to the Ti-plasmid.
During the infection, a segment of the Ti-plasmid, the T-DNA, is transferred into
the plant cell and integrated into the plant genome.
