Enzyme promiscuity: evolutionary and mechanistic aspects

To assign an unambiguous role for promiscuity in the divergence of new enzyme functions, one must assume that, once a certain latent promiscuous function becomes relevant, it can be easily improved through one, or just few, mutations, to provide a distinct selective advantage. Directed laboratory ev ...

Point mutation
A point mutation, or single base modification, is a type of mutation that causes a single nucleotide base change, insertion, or deletion of the genetic material, DNA or RNA. The term frameshift mutation indicates the addition or deletion of a base pair. A point mutant is an individual that is affected by a point mutation.Repeat induced point mutations are recurring point mutations, discussed below.
