Entry term(s) mutación de supresores
mutación supresora
Scope note: Proceso de mutación que restaura el FENOTIPO salvaje del organismo que posee un GENOTIPO alterado por una mutación. La segunda mutación “supresora” puede afectar a un gen diferente o al mismo gen pero localizada a distancia de la mutación primaria, o estar en genes extracromosómicos (HERENCIA EXTRACROMOSÓMICA).

Scope note: Mutation process that restores the wild-type PHENOTYPE in an organism possessing a mutationally altered GENOTYPE. The second "suppressor" mutation may be on a different gene, on the same gene but located at a distance from the site of the primary mutation, or in extrachromosomal genes (EXTRACHROMOSOMAL INHERITANCE).
