  1. gene mutation

    A gene mutation is a permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene. This alteration leads to a variation in the sequence of DNA, which can cause changes in the function or structure of the protein that the gene codes for. These changes can result in physical traits or disease susceptibility. Gene mutations can occur in two ways: they can be inherited from a parent or acquired during a person's lifetime.
