An organisms DNA affects how it looks, how it behaves, and its physiology. So a change in an organisms DNA can cause changes in all aspects of its life. Mutations are essential to evolution; they are the raw material of genetic variation. Without mutation, evolution could not occur.
The researchers identified 11 particular mutations that were likely to cause health problems. These mutations were estimated to contributed to death in 9% of cases. Many of the mutations occurred in a cluster of genes that regulate calcium in neurons and heart muscle cells.
Around generation 300, the rate of mutation accumulation becomes highly variable among regions, resulting in the relatively rapid extinction of some regions. However, the inexorable onslaught of new mutations and their accumulation eventually cause the extinction of the entire metapopulation.
Experimental evolution of microbes reveals the origin of robustness. Genetic redundancy through gene duplication gives rise to mutational robustness.
Genetic mutations are changes to your DNA sequence that happen during cell division when your cells make copies of themselves. Your DNA tells your body how to form and function. Genetic mutations could lead to genetic conditions like cancer, or they could help humans better adapt to their environment over time.

Lethal mutagenesis aims at extinguishing viruses by increased mutagenesis prompted by virus-specific mutagenic agents, mainly nucleoside analogues. It is derived from the error threshold relationship of quasispecies theory, and it is slowly finding its way towards a clinical application.
We defined the mutational robustness of influenza A virus by measuring the fitness of a large number of viruses, each with a single point mutation. We found that the overall robustness of influenza was similar to that of poliovirus and other viruses of similar size.
However, when the genomic mutation rate (i.e. the expected number of mutations per genome duplication) exceeds a critical value (Ucrit), mutation outpaces selection, causing population extinction in a process known as lethal mutagenesis [1].
