1. Mutants

   In biology, and especially in genetics, a mutant is an organism or a new genetic character arising or resulting from an instance of mutation, which is generally an alteration of the DNA sequence of the genome or chromosome of an organism. It is a characteristic that would not be observed naturally in a specimen. The term mutant is also applied to a virus with an alteration in its nucleotide sequence whose genome is in the nuclear genome. The natural occurrence of genetic mutations is integral to the process of evolution. The study of mutants is an integral part of biology; by understanding the effect that a mutation in a gene has, it is possible to establish the normal function of that gene.

Examples of Mutants in a Sentence

1. George Dimopoulos:

   The problem is that these GM mutants have a fitness cost, current studies are addressing this issue, trying to find ways of making these mosquitoes as competitive as the wild type. One way of perhaps doing this is to inactivate the parasite-host factor, FREP1, in the adult female gut only, as opposed to the entire mosquito at all developmental stages. One can also integrate our strategy with a so-called gene-drive to more effectively drive the mutation into a mosquito population.

2. Rockefeller University:

   We had to convince the colonies to accept the mutants. If the conditions weren’t right, the worker ants would stop caring for larvae and destroy them, once the ants successfully made it to the adult phase, we noticed a shift in their behavior almost immediately.

3. Michael Giulietti:

   Factory birds are mutants with huge breasts, but they are tastier, i hope the Impossible turkey tastes like the factory-raised ones so I can have taste without ethical issues.

4. Anthony Fauci:

   What we will do and are doing already is making preparations for the possibility that down the pipe, down the line, we may need to modify and upgrade the vaccines. We don’t need to do that right now, the best way to prevent the further evolution of these mutants is to vaccinate as many people as possible with the vaccines that we have currently available to us.

5. Shawn Robbins:

   It may take time to pan out, but that road starts with movies like' Tenet,' just to have New Mutants playing in theaters right now is a huge upturn for the film industry.
