Gene Mutable

Mutable gene: what is it and how does it work?

A mutable gene, also known as a variation gene, is a special category of genes that are capable of changing their DNA sequence. This process is called mutation and underlies the evolution of organisms.

Mutations can occur due to errors in DNA copying, radiation, or exposure to chemicals. Mutable genes can change their DNA sequence, which can lead to changes in the structure of the protein they encode. This in turn
