(A) Comparison of per generation mutation rate and the number of de novo mutations per generation. Uchimura and colleagues estimated the rate in laboratory mice by using mutation accumulation lines which they have established (shown in C). (B) Examples of phenotypic mutants, which were appeared from their mutation accumulation experiment and showed clear inheritance. Out of them, \u201cSyndactyly mutant\u201d was deposited as \u201csube\u201d (RBRC02810) and \u201cVocalizer mutant\u201d which emits human audible vocalization as B6-Singing<Osk> (RBRC04294, soon to be open). (C) Pedigrees of mutation accumulation lines (wild type and Pold1exo\/exo<\/sup><\/i> [mutator] mice.) All breeding lines that were separated by six or more generations from the original line are shown: blue, wild-type; black, surviving mutator lines; red, extinct mutator lines; green, deposited lines in RIKEN BRC. Green arrows: whole-genome sequencing was performed on mice from the indicated generations (Uchimura et al. 2015).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Germline mutation is a fundamental resource for phenotypic variation, congenital disorders, and evolution. While mutation rate is a parameter to assess the risk of mutagens in germline and the mechanism of organism evolution, effect of accumulated mutation on mammalian population has been largely unclear. Uchimura and colleagues generated Pold1exo\/exo<\/sup><\/i> mouse on a C57BL\/6 background, which lacks 3\u2019-5\u2019 exonuclease activity of DNA polymerase delta [1]. They bred these mutator mice for more than 20 generations and performed whole-genome sequencing of different breeding lines [2]. Germline base-substitution mutation rate in laboratory mouse was estimated to be 5.4 \u00d7 10\u22129<\/sup> (95% confidence interval = 4.6 \u00d7 10\u22129<\/sup>\u20136.5 \u00d7 10\u22129<\/sup>) and was about half the rate reported in human. Mutator mice showed variable phenotypes including human-audible vocalization, diluted coat color, and shortened limb and tail. Body weight as well as birth rate, litter size, and survival rate tended to decrease with increasing generations. This murator strain is a helpful tool to assume the risk of germline mutation in the mammalian population.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
