Essential knowledge 3.A.3: The chromosomal basis of inheritance provides an understanding of the pattern of passage (transmission) of genes from parent to offspring. a. Rules of probability can be applied to analyze passage of single gene traits from parent to offspring. AaBbCcDD Probability of aBcD ½ x ½ x ½ x 1 =1/8 GENOTYPE TT = 25% Tt = 50 % tt = 25% PHENOTYPE 75% dominant trait 25% recessive trait Punnett by Riedell
Essential knowledge 3. A. 3. b Essential knowledge 3.A.3. b. Segregation and independent assortment of chromosomes result in genetic variation. Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following: 1. Segregation and independent assortment can be applied to genes that are on different chromosomes. ~ The behavior of chromosomes during meiosis accounts for Mendel’s laws of segregation and independent assortment http://bioap.wikispaces.com/file/view/crossing_over.gif/133299913/238x238/crossing_over.gif http://bio1151.nicerweb.com/Locked/media/ch14/14_08IndependentAssort.jpg

Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of the following: 1. Segregation and independent assortment can be applied to genes that are on different chromosomes. http://bio1151.nicerweb.com/Locked/media/ch14/14_08IndependentAssort.jpg
Essential knowledge 3.A.4: The inheritance patterns of many traits cannot be explained by simple Mendelian genetics. b. Some traits are determined by genes on sex chromosomes. To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as: • Sex-linked genes reside on sex chromosomes (X in humans). • In mammals and flies, the Y chromosome is very small and carries few genes. • In mammals and flies, females are XX and males are XY; as such, X-linked recessive traits are more common in males.
Inheritance of Sex-Linked Genes The sex chromosomes have genes for many characters unrelated to sex A gene located on either sex chromosome is called a sex-linked gene In humans, sex-linked usually refers to a gene on the larger X chromosome Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
Sex-linked genes follow specific patterns of inheritance For a recessive sex-linked trait to be expressed A female needs two copies of the allele A male needs only one copy of the allele Sex-linked recessive disorders are much more common in males than in females Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
Y chromosome-small & carries only a few genes http://pageofmystery.com/ALPHAS/genetics/earhairbig.jpg Y linked traits show up ONLY in MALES EX: hairy pinna SRY gene Master control gene turns on other genes Creates a cascade of activation to make developing embryo into a MALE http://www.nature.com/scitable/content/18935/pierce_4_10_large_2.jpg
X-Linked Genes Recessive genes carried on the X chromosome Red-green colorblindness Mutation in protein receptors in eye that distinguish colors Hemophilia Inability to make blood clotting factors Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Change in muscle proteins; results early death http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/peripherals/samsung-develops-lcd-for-colorblind-036306.php

X-chromosome Inactivation In female cells ONE X chromosome is randomly switched off It condenses and forms a dense region in the nucleus called a BARR BODY http://fig.cox.miami.edu/~cmallery/150/gene/barr.htm
CAT COLOR In cats the gene that controls color is carried on the X chromosome Tortoiseshell cats express different alleles in different cells http://www.eagle.ca/~roda/RodMerArts/SwallowHill/Kiisu.html FEMALE CATS: Female cat can have BOTH black and orange spots See a video http://www.islandstrolling.com/mainland/peloponnes/photo/mystra_cat_white_orange_black.jpg
CAT COLOR MALE cats have only one X chromosome, so they can only have http://ascensionparish.net/forum/messages/14/2493.jpg MALE cats have only one X chromosome, so they can only have ONE COLOR of spots! THINK ABOUT IT? How many colors of spots could a male cat with Klinefelter syndrome have?
Essential knowledge 3. A. 3. b Essential knowledge 3.A.3. b. Segregation and independent assortment of chromosomes result in genetic variation. Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following: 2. Genes that are adjacent and close to each other on the same chromosome tend to move as a unit; the probability that genes will segregate as a unit is a function of the distance between them. The farther apart genes are on a chromosome the more likely they are to be separated during crossing over http://anthro.palomar.edu/biobasis/images/linked_genes.gif http://cnx.org/content/m47304/latest/Figure_08_03_06.jpg
~ Genes that assort independently are either: Many fruit fly genes were mapped initially using recombination frequencies T.H. Morgan did experiments with fruit flies to see how linkage affects the inheritance of two different characters ~ Linked genes that are close together on the same chromosome do not assort independently ~ Genes that assort independently are either: - on separate chromosomes OR - are far apart on the same chromosome Mutant phenotypes Short aristae Black body Cinnabar eyes Vestigial wings Brown Long aristae (appendages on head) Gray Red Normal Wild-type phenotypes II Y I X IV III 48.5 57.5 67.0 104.5 Copyright © 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Alterations of Chromosome Structure A deletion occurs when a chromosome fragment lacking a centromere is lost during cell division. This chromosome will be missing certain genes. A duplication occurs when a fragment becomes attached as an extra segment to a sister chromatid. Images from: Biology; Campbell and Reese; Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide from: Slide show by Dr. Chuck Downing
Alterations of Chromosome Structure Chromosomal translocations between nonhomologous chromosome are also associated with human disorders. Chromosomal translocations have been implicated in certain cancers, including chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). CML occurs when a fragment of chromosome 22 switches places with a small fragment from the tip of chromosome 9. Normal chromosome 9 Reciprocal translocation Translocated chromosome 9 Philadelphia chromosome Normal chromosome 22 Translocated chromosome 22 http://www.antigenics.com/diseases/images/philly_chrom.gif
Alterations of Chromosome Structure An inversion occurs when a chromosomal fragment reattaches to the original chromosome but in the reverse orientation. In translocation, a chromosomal fragment joins a nonhomologous chromosome.

Duplications and translocations are typically harmful Cri du chat Is a disorder caused by a deletion in chromosome #5 Mental retardation Small head Unusual facial features “cat cry” http://www.morfosa.org/medweb/patologi/bilder/cri-du-chat.gif
Nondisjunction Normal Meiosis Enduring understanding 3.C: The processing of genetic information is imperfect and is a source of genetic variation. Essential knowledge 3.C.1: Changes in genotype can result in changes in phenotype. c. Errors in mitosis or meiosis can result in changes in phenotype. Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following: 2. Changes in chromosome number often result in human disorders with developmental limitations, including Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) and XO (Turner syndrome). [See also 3.A.2, 3.A.3] Nondisjunction Normal Meiosis http://web.udl.es/usuaris/e4650869/docencia/gen_etica/meioferti2.html http://www.tokyo-med.ac.jp/genet/anm/domov.gif
Nondisjunction – Failure of homologous chromosomes OR chromatids to separate at anaphase
Nondisjunction Results in ANEUPLOIDY = one or more chromosomes have extra or missing copies AFTER FERTILIZATION: Cell with only 1 copy of a chromosome instead of 2 = MONOSOMY Cell with 3 copies of a chromosome instead of 2 = TRISOMY
Down syndrome (Trisomy 21) Most common chromosomal abnormality (1 in 800 births) Similar facial features Slanted eyes / Protruding tongue Mild to severe mental retardation 50% have heart defects that need surgery to repair http://www.hadsa.org/ Both older (35+ years) and younger (under 16 years) mothers are more at risk. http://www.healthofchildren.com/images/gech_0001_0002_0_img0096.jpg
Some individuals with Down syndrome have the normal number of chromosomes but have all or part of a third chromosome 21 attached to another chromosome by translocation. http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/f/f5/180px-Down_syndrome_translocation.png
Turner syndrome (X0) 1 in 5000 births http://medgen.genetics.utah.edu/photographs/diseases/high/611.gif 1 in 5000 births Females have only one X chromosome Small size Broad chest Slightly decreased intelligence 35% have heart abnormalities Hearing loss common Reproductive organs don’t develop at puberty
Klinefelter syndrome 1 in 2000 births live births http://www.akdeniz.edu.tr/tip/histoloji/embrders_dosyalar/slide0228_image1186.jpg Klinefelter syndrome 1 in 2000 births live births Males have extra X chromosomes (Can be XXy, XXXy, or XXXXy) Taller than average Normal intelligence have male sex organs, but are sterile. may be feminine characteristics, Often not discovered until puberty when don’t mature like peers Presence of BARR BODIES
Karyotype can show: Sex of baby Missing or extra chromosomes Major deletions or translocations Can’t see individual gene changes http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/f/f3/220px-Down_syndrome_translocation.png
Polyploidy -common among plants Ex: Strawberries = octaploid wheat = hexaploid Much less common in animals LETHAL in humans Polyploids are more nearly normal in phenotype than aneuploids. http://tasty-dishes.com/data_images/encyclopedia/strawberry/strawberry-03.jpg Copyright © 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
POLYPLOIDY Organisms with more than two complete sets of chromosomes Can occur when a normal gamete fertilizes another gamete in which there has been nondisjunction of all its chromosomes. Results in triploid (3n) zygote OR if 2n zygote fails to divide after replicating its chromosomes Results in a tetraploid (4n) embryo Copyright © 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
PRADER-WILLI Syndrome Victor Age 1 Victor Age 2 Born floppy and pale At first refuse to nurse, but later eat until they become obese Tiny hands and feet Underdeveloped sex organs Mildly retarded Spectacular temper tantrums especially if refused food Exceptional proficiency with Jig-saw puzzles Missing piece of chromosome #15
ANGELMAN’S SYNDROME Taut, not floppy Thin Hyperactive Insomniac Small head Move jerkily like puppets Happy disposition Severely mentally retarded Rarer than Prader-Willi Missing SAME piece of Chromosome #15 Colin Farrell’s son has Angelman’s syndrome http://www.usmagazine.com/colin_farrell_and_son
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE? In Prader-Willi missing piece of #15 was from father In Angelman’s, missing piece of #15 was from the mother How does a gene “remember” where it came from? GENOMIC IMPRINTING
GENOMIC IMPRINTING Involves the silencing of certain genes that are “stamped” with an imprint during gamete production so same allele (maternal or paternal) is expressed in all body cells Involves methylation (-CH3) (turns genes OFF) or demethylation (turns genes on) of cytosine nucleotides Several hundred mammalian genes, many critical for development, may be subject to imprinting. http://www.scq.ubc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2006/08/methylation%5B1%5D-GIF.gif
EPIGENETICS “above genetics” Molecules sit on top of the genome Control which genes are ON or OFF http://www.teachersdomain.org/assets/wgbh/biot09/biot09_vid_epigenetics/biot09_vid_epigenetics_l.jpg
Imprinting is critical for normal development. In the new generation, both maternal and paternal imprints are apparently “erased” in gamete-producing cells. Then, all chromosomes are reimprinted according to the sex of the individual in which they reside. Imprinting is critical for normal development.

Fragile X syndrome, which leads to various degrees of mental retardation, also appears to be subject to genomic imprinting. This disorder is named for an abnormal X chromosome in which the tip hangs on by a thin thread of DNA. This disorder affects one in every 1,500 males and one in every 2,500 females. Inheritance of fragile X is complex, but the syndrome is more common when the abnormal chromosome is inherited from the mother. This is consistent with the higher frequency in males. Imprinting by the mother somehow causes it.

c. Some traits result from nonnuclear inheritance c. Some traits result from nonnuclear inheritance. Evidence of student learning is a demonstrated understanding of each of the following: 1. Chloroplasts and mitochondria are randomly assorted to gametes and daughter cells; thus, traits determined by chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA do not follow simple Mendelian rules. 2. In animals, mitochondrial DNA is transmitted by the egg and not by sperm; as such, mitochondrial-determined traits are maternally inherited. http://faculty.clintoncc.suny.edu/faculty/michael.gregory/files/Bio%20100/Bio%20100%20Lectures/meiosis/img025.gif
EXTRANUCLEAR GENES The inheritance of traits controlled by genes present in the chloroplasts or mitochondria Depends solely on the maternal parent because the zygote’s cytoplasm comes from the egg EX: Variegated leaves result from mutations in pigment genes located in plastids inherited from mother Image from Biology; Campbell and Reece; Pearson Prentice Hall publishing as Benjamin Cummings © 2005
EXTRANUCLEAR GENES Some diseases affecting the muscular and nervous systems are caused by defects in mitochondrial genes that prevent cells from making enough ATP http://www.ncl.ac.uk/nnp/research/mrg/advice/inheritance.htm
MITOCHONDRIAL DISEASES are RARE Accumulation of mitochondrial mutations may play role in aging process, diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer’s EX: mitochondrial myopathy- weakness, intolerance of exercise muscle deterioration http://employees.csbsju.edu/hjakubowski/classes/ch331/oxphos/mitochondria.gif
Essential knowledge 3.A.3: d. Many ethical, social and medical issues surround human genetic disorders. To foster student understanding of this concept, instructors can choose an illustrative example such as: • Reproduction issues • Civic issues such as ownership of genetic information, privacy, historical contexts, etc. http://media2.abc2news.com//photo/2012/11/22/DNA_Supreme_ourt_109850000_20121122000601_320_240.JPG http://www.genewatch.org/uploads/865d357353e86dfc74ba59e18bffed98/GenTesting.gif http://www.rainydaybooks.com/files/rainyday/files/RebeccaSkloot.jpg
