1 Human and applied genetics

2 Section 1 Vocabulary: 1. Carrier: an individual that is heterozygous for a recessive disorder 2. Pedigree: a diagram that traces the inheritance of a particular trait through several generations using symbols to illustrate the inheritance of the trait

3 Pedigree Charts Video

4 PEDIGREE CHARTS Pedigree charts show a record of the family of an individual. It can be used to study the transmission of a hereditary condition. It is particularly useful when there are large families and a good family record over several generations.

5 You cannot make humans of different types breed together so pedigree charts provide one of the few ethical ways of studying human genetics. Today genetic engineering has new tools to offer doctors studying genetic diseases but a genetic counselor will still use pedigree charts to help determine the distribution of a disease in an affected family.

6 Symbols used in pedigree charts

In a marriage with five children, two daughters and three sons. The second son is affected by the condition

8 Organizing the pedigree chart
Below is a pedigree chart of a family showing four generations. A total of 20 individuals.

9 Generations are identified by Roman numerals
Generations are identified by Roman numerals. Individuals in each generation are identified by Arabic numerals numbered from the left. Therefore the affected individuals are II3, IV2 and IV3.

10 What does this show?

14 Section 1 1. What is the genotype of a person who is a carrier for a disease? heterozygous

15 Cystic Fibrosis Cystic fibrosis happens most often in white people of northern European ancestry, occurring in about 1 out of 3,000 live births. In cystic fibrosis, the lungs fill with thick mucus; a perfect breeding ground for bacteria and viruses. Most people with cystic fibrosis have almost constant infections in their lungs and sinuses.

16 In cystic fibrosis, a defective gene alters a protein that regulates the normal movement of salt (sodium chloride) in and out of cells. This results in thick, sticky secretions in the respiratory and digestive tracts, as well as in the reproductive system. It also causes increased salt in sweat.

17 2. What ions are to blame for the problem of mucus clogging the ducts in people with cystic fibrosis? chloride

18 Albinism Albinism is an inherited condition that is present at birth. It is characterized by a lack of melanin, the pigment that normally gives color to the skin, hair, and eyes. Many types of albinism exist, all of which involve lack of pigment in varying degrees. The condition, which is found in all races, may be accompanied by eye problems and may ultimately lead to skin cancer .

20 3. What is missing in people with albinism?
Melanin

21 Tay Sachs Tay-Sachs carriers are found most frequently among families of eastern European Jewish descent (Ashkenazi Jews). In the United States today, approximately one in every 27 Jews is a Tay-Sachs carrier.

22 What happens if you have Tay-Sachs?
Children with Tay-Sachs disease lack a vital enzyme, hexosaminidase A (Hex-A). Hex-A is needed for the body to break down a fatty waste substance found in brain cells. Without Hex-A, this substance accumulates abnormally and causes progressive damage until the nervous system can no longer sustain life. In its most common variant, known as infantile Tay–Sachs disease, it causes a relentless deterioration of mental and physical abilities that commences around six months of age and usually results in death by the age of four

23 4. What is the effect of Tay-Sachs disease?
Build up of fats in the brain causing mental disfunctions

24 5. Why are there no cures for these diseases?
They are all recessive genetic disorders and occur due to defects in every cells DNA.

25 6. If all of the above genetic diseases are recessive, then what genotype is necessary to have the disorder? 7. Are there any disorders that are dominant?_________ If so, Name 2 8. In a pedigree chart, what symbol represents a male? ___________ a female? __________ 9. What is the purpose of a pedigree chart? 10. Draw a pedigree of a boy with galactosemia if his father has it, his paternal grandparents are phenotypically normal and his mother and maternal grandparents are all phenotypically normal.

26 6. If all of the above genetic diseases are recessive, then what genotype is necessary to have the disorder? Homozygous recessive 7. Are there any disorders that are dominant?_yes________ If so, Name 2 Huntingtons disease and Achondroplasia__ 8. In a pedigree chart, what symbol represents a male? _a square _____ a female? A circle __________ 9. What is the purpose of a pedigree chart? To trace the inheritance of a trait over the generations and to be able to predict the possibilities of the offspring inheriting the trait 10. Draw a pedigree of a boy with galactosemia if his father has it, his paternal grandparents are phenotypically normal and his mother and maternal grandparents are all phenotypically normal.

27 Section 2 Vocabulary: 1. Incomplete dominance 2. Codominance
3. Multiple alleles 4. Epistasis 5. Sex chromosome 6. Autosome 7. Sex-linked trait 8. Polygenic trait

28 SC.912.L.16.2 Ch 8 Discuss observed inheritance patterns caused by various modes of inheritance, including dominant, recessive, codominant, sex-linked, polygenic, and multiple alleles.

29 Dominant and recessive traits

30 Advanced Genetics

31 1. Incomplete dominance , ( 302 )
Define: (1 pt ) _when the heterozygous genotype results in an intermediate between the two parent’s homozygous phenotypes

32 Incomplete dominance

33 Incomplete dominance A mixture of the two phenotypes Produces a new
Red X White = Pink

34 Co dominance 2. Codominance 302
Define: (1 pt ) when both alleles are equally expressed in the heterozygous condition Both are expressed Like a dog or cat with several colors fur

35 Blood groups A and B are co dominant!
This is also an example of multiple alleles A, B and O

36 3. Multiple alleles, ( ) Define: (1 pt ) when a trait is determined by more than 2 alleles

37 Multiple alleles More then two alleles for a trait. Blood types A B O

38 4. Epistasis , ( ) Define: (1 pt ) when one allele hides or alters the effects of another allele.

39 example: coat color in dogs 2 sets of alleles E determines if the fur is going to be dark. Ee no dark pigment, B determines how dar. EEbb Edbb will be chocolate brown eebb or eeBb will be yellow because e masks the effect of the dominant B allele!_

40 5. Sex chromosome , ( ) Define: (1 pt ) the one pair of chromosomes that determines the sex of the organism. In humans the X and the Y.

41 6. Autosome, ( ) Define: (1 pt ) All of the chromosomes that are not sex chromosomes. These contain the genes for everything necessary for life. 22 pair in humans

42 7. Sex-linked trait: , ( ) Define: (1 pt ) traits controlled by genes on the X chromosome. Introduction--Sex Linked Inheritance (Video Clip)

43 Sex linked traits The genes for these traits are on the X chromosome, because boys only receive one X chromosome they are more likely to inherit disorders passed to them from their mother who would be a carrier.

44 Color Blindness (Video Clip)

45 Coat color in cats is an X-linked gene, with alleles for black and orange-brown, so XBXB and XBY cats will have a black coat, while XOXO and XOY will have an orange-brown coat. Another possible combination for female cats would be XBXO. Both of the color alleles would be expressed, so the cat would end up being partially brown and partially black.

46 Q: Can a male cat ever be calico?
A: Yes, if he’s XXY, which would be abnormal. It turns out that abnormal numbers of X chromosomes aren’t as serious as other chromosome number abnormalities, because all but one X turn off, so an XXX individual would have two Barr bodies, an XXY individual would have one, etc.

49 8. Polygenic trait, ( ) Define: (1 pt ) traits controlled by many genes skin tone, height and eye color are examples.

50 Height is polygenic

51 1. Define dominant: 2. Define recessive: 3. What is it called when a red flower and a white flower are crossed and the result is a pink flower results?

52 4. When the F1 generation of this cross (above) is crossed, what do you get for a phenotypic ratio? _______________ 5. What does it mean to be codominant? What is an example of co dominance?

53 6. Why is sickle cell an advantage with regard to malaria?
7. Human blood groups have several alleles to determine the blood type. What is this called? 8. What are the alleles for blood type?

54 9. What happens to the number of possible phenotypes when you have multiple alleles?
10. What is epistasis?

55 1. Define dominant: The trait that masks the trait it is crossed with in the parental cross and shows up 100% in the F1 generation. 2. Define recessive: the trait that is not seen when crossed with another in the P cross and does not show up again until the F2 generation. 3. What is it called when a red flower and a white flower are crossed and the result is a pink flower results? Incomplete dominance red X white = Pink

56 4. When the F1 generation of this cross (above) is crossed, what do you get for a phenotypic ratio? 1:2:1 red : pink : white 5. What does it mean to be codominant? Both traits equally show in the phenotype. What is an example of co dominance? Blood types A and B are co dominant and sickly cell trait is co dominant. 6. Why is sickle cell an advantage with regard to malaria? The sickle cell trait rbc’s are resistant to the malaria disease_ thus keeping this trait around as an advantage.

57 7. Human blood groups have several alleles to determine the blood type
7. Human blood groups have several alleles to determine the blood type. What is this called? _multiple alleles 8. What are the alleles for blood type? _A_ ___B_ and O or i 9.

62 15. Do males or females more often have recessive sex-linked disorders
15. Do males or females more often have recessive sex-linked disorders? males_ why ? females have a second X with the other gene to “correct the recessive one males do not! 16. Do males or females more often carry the disorders? Females why ? they have 2 X chromosome , one cn be the recessive while the other can be the “normal” one. They can be heterozygous. 17. What are some examples of sex-linked traits? Red-green colorblindness is an example. Hemophilia is another

. Do the genetic problems on the web site: for practice with a variety of types of problems. Write out your answers to the first 4 problems as you do them on a sheet of paper.

73 Trisomy 21

74 Chromosomal Aberrations - Mistakes of Meiosis
Aneuploidy - Variation in chromosome #    monosomy - 1 less than normal                                                                         disomy - normal (diploid)                                                                         trisomy - 1 more than normal         via   non-disjunction*    (trisomy 21 - Down Syndrome )

75 Alterations of Chromosome Structure
breakage of chromosomes can lead to 4 types of structural changes                                                          1) deletions - chromosome fragment without centromere is lost      cri du chat: deletion on chromosome 5 mental retardation, small head & face, cry of a cat, fatal                2) duplications - a segment is repeated                3) inversions - a segment reverses is linear sequence                4) translocations - both segments moves form one chromosome to another

77 amniocentesis

78 MUTATIONS Any change in DNA

79 Point mutations A single base pair is changed. THE DOG BIT THE CAT
THE DOG BIT THE CAR Only one letter is different yet….

80 Frame shift Mutation A single base is added or deleted
This causes the entire line to be read differently!!! CCG AAU GGU ADD ONE C AND CCCGAAUGGU READS CCC GAA UGG U

81 CHROMOSOMAL MUTATIONS
Parts of chromosomes break off Join to the wrong chromosome Chromosomes do not separate correctly during meiosis: non disjunction

82 Trisomy monosomy Three where there should be two Or
One where there should be two.
