Errors of Meiosis Chromosomal Abnormalities (Ch. 15)

Chromosomal abnormalities Incorrect number of chromosomes – nondisjunction chromosomes don’t separate properly during meiosis – breakage of chromosomes deletion duplication inversion translocation

Nondisjunction Problems with meiotic spindle cause errors in daughter cells – homologous chromosomes do not separate properly during Meiosis 1 – sister chromatids fail to separate during Meiosis 2 – too many or too few chromosomes 2n n n n-1 n+1

Alteration of chromosome number all with incorrect number 1/2 with incorrect number error in Meiosis 1 error in Meiosis 2

trisomy 2n+1 Nondisjunction Offspring has wrong chromosome number – trisomy cells have 3 copies of a chromosome – monosomy cells have only 1 copy of a chromosome n+1n monosomy 2n-1 n-1n

Human chromosome disorders High frequency in humans – most embryos are spontaneously aborted – alterations are too disastrous – developmental problems result from biochemical imbalance imbalance in regulatory molecules? – hormones? – transcription factors? Certain conditions are tolerated – upset the balance less = survivable – but characteristic set of symptoms = syndrome

Down syndrome Trisomy 21 – 3 copies of chromosome 21 – 1 in 700 children born in U.S. Chromosome 21 is the smallest human chromosome – but still severe effects Frequency of Down syndrome correlates with the age of the mother

Down syndrome & age of mother Mother’s age Incidence of Down Syndrome Under 30<1 in in in in in in in in in in in in in 12 Rate of miscarriage due to amniocentesis:  1970s data 0.5%, or 1 in 200 pregnancies  2006 data <0.1%, or 1 in 1600 pregnancies

Genetic testing Amniocentesis (2nd trimester) – sample of embryo cells – stain & photograph chromosomes Analysis of karyotype

Post-Sorted: It’s A Boy!

Sex chromosomes abnormalities Human development more tolerant of wrong numbers in sex chromosome But produces a variety of distinct syndromes in humans – XXY = Klinefelter’s syndrome male – XXX = Trisomy X female – XYY = Jacob’s syndrome male – XO = Turner syndrome female

XXY male – one in every 2000 live births – have male sex organs, but are sterile – feminine characteristics some breast development lack of facial hair – tall – normal intelligence Klinefelter’s syndrome

Jacob’s syndrome male XYY Males – 1 in 1000 live male births – extra Y chromosome – slightly taller than average – more active – normal intelligence, slight learning disabilities – delayed emotional maturity – normal sexual development

Trisomy X XXX – 1 in every 2000 live births – produces healthy females Why? Barr bodies – all but one X chromosome is inactivated

Turner syndrome Monosomy X or X0 – 1 in every 5000 births – varied degree of effects – webbed neck – short stature – sterile

Changes in chromosome structure deletion – loss of a chromosomal segment duplication – repeat a segment inversion – reverses a segment translocation – move segment from one chromosome to another error of replication error of crossing over

Meanwhile in Plants... Plants are very tolerant of polyploid mutations. Offspring with extra sets of chromosomes experience gigantism. Most crops are polyploid.
