That the primary effect of gene mutation may be as simple as the substitution of a single amino acid by another and may lead to profound secondary changes in protein structure and properties has recently been strongly indicated by the work of Ingram on hemoglobin. Edward Lawrie Tatum

Work Simple Single Changes Secondary Mutation Gene Strongly Properties Structure Lead Primary Protein Another Been Effect May Substitution Acid Amino Amino Acid Profound Recently

The balance of evidence both from the cell-free system and from the study of mutation, suggests that this does not occur at random, and that triplets coding the same amino acid may well be rather similar. Francis Crick

Balance Random Evidence System Mutation Triplets Similar Rather Both Study Well Does Occur Same May Acid Amino Amino Acid Coding

Attempts have been made from a study of the changes produced by mutation to obtain the relative order of the bases within various triplets, but my own view is that these are premature until there is more extensive and more reliable data on the composition of the triplets. Francis Crick

Made Own Changes Relative Reliable Mutation Composition Triplets Data My Own More Various Attempts Study Until Obtain Within Been Order Produced View Premature Bases Extensive

Bacteria evolve, and so they become resistant to existing drugs. Sometimes they revert, depending on how damaging the mutation is to the life cycle of the bacteria. Mutations that give rise to resistance against particular compounds do increase, and that is why you constantly have to have new ones. Thomas A. Steitz

Life You Sometimes Become Increase Evolve Bacteria Mutation Mutations Constantly Compounds Rise Give New Particular How Revert New Ones Existing Depending Against Cycle Why Resistance Resistant Damaging
