Descriptor English:

Base Pair Mismatch

Descriptor Spanish:

Disparidad de Par Base

Spanish from Spain

Descriptor	error de apareamiento de bases
Entry term(s)	apareamiento incorrecto de bases error de emparejamiento de bases mal apareamiento de bases
Scope note:	Presencia de una base no complementaria en el ADN bicatenario causada por desaminación espontánea de la citosina o adenina, mal apareamiento durante la recombinación homóloga o errores en la replicación del ADN. Los defectos de apareamiento múltiples de los pares de bases dan lugar a la formación de ADN heteroduplex (ÁCIDOS NUCLEICOS HETERODUPLEX).

Descriptor Portuguese:

Entry term(s):

Base Pair Mismatches
Mismatch, Base Pair
Mismatches, Base Pair

Tree number(s):

G05.365.590.060

RDF Unique Identifier:

https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D020137

Scope note:

The presence of an uncomplimentary base in double-stranded DNA caused by spontaneous deamination of cytosine or adenine, mismatching during homologous recombination, or errors in DNA replication. Multiple, sequential base pair mismatches lead to formation of heteroduplex DNA; (NUCLEIC ACID HETERODUPLEXES).
