Abstract
Nucleotide sequences of genomic DNA in cells can be altered by a variety of factors. If the alterations do not influence the growth and development of cells, the nucleotide sequences present in germinal cells can be transferred to progenies. If the nucleotide sequence changes influence normal cellular functions, they result in diverse diseases, such as cancers and hereditary diseases in humans.
