Sex-Linkage & Pedigrees

Sex Linkage A person’s sex is determined by the presence of sex chromosomes Humans have 44 “autosomes” and 2 “sex” chromosomes Males are heterozygous XY Females are homozygous XX Presence of Y indicates maleness rather than the absence of X A gene on the X of a male has no matching allele on the Y

Sex Linkage Explained Further Traits found on the X chromosome are commonly referred to as X-linked or Sex-Linked Each allele of each sex chromosome is written as a superscript Examples of X-Linked Genes: Hemophilia Muscular dystrophy Red/green colourblindness Early patterned baldness

Take a Look…

Hemophilia: A Royal Curse Blood clotting Normal blood clotting is dominant to hemophilia The gene for blood clotting in on the X chromosome

Hemophilia Discovered Let HX = the hemophilia on the X chromosome Let Y represent the Y chromosome Cross a heterozygous female with a normal blood clotting male HXX cross HXY The Y factor Males CANNOT pass on an X-linked trait to a son because my MUST pass on the Y to him

Vision Test 8% of men, 0.04% of women Three genes give us our colour vision Blue, Red, and Green Blue is found on an autosome Red and green are found on the X chromosome  1. Normal Color Vision:  A: 29,  B: 45,  C: --,  D: 26   2. Red-Green Color-Blind:  A: 70,  B: --,  C: 5,  D: -- 3. Red Color-blind:  A: 70,  B: --,  C: 5,  D: 6   4. Green Color-Blind:  A: 70,  B: --,  C: 5,  D: 2

Red/Green Colour Blindness Defective red allele If the red defective allele is passed but green allele is normal the person can’t tell the difference between red and green Defective green allele Same effect if the green defective allele is passed on and the red is normal

Eldest child  Youngest child Pedigree Charts Pedigree charts show a record of the family of an individual They can be used to study the transmission of a hereditary condition They are particularly useful when there are large families and a good family record over several generations. A mating with five children, two daughters and three sons. The middle son is affected by the condition. Eldest child  Youngest child Normal male Affected male Normal female Affected female Mating

Organizing Pedigree Charts A pedigree chart of a family showing 20 individuals Individuals in each generation are identified by Roman numerals numbered from the left Therefore the affected individuals are II3, IV2 and IV3 I II III IV
