Answer» Answer: Role of base analogues in mutation. Base analog MUTAGENS are CHEMICALS that MIMIC bases to such an extent that they can be incorporated into DNA in place of one of the normal bases but in doing so lead to an increase in the RATE of mutation. To be mutagenic, a base analog must mispair more frequently than the normal base it replaced. |
