To review:

The significance of polA1 mutation.

Introduction:

Mutation refers to the permanent change of the sequence of the nucleotides of the genome of the virus, organism, or extrachromosomal DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). These basically results from the errors at the time of replication of DNA, particularly in the meiosis process and other kinds of damage to DNA which may undergo error-prone repair.
