True or False? 1. The location of a gene on a chromosome is called a locus 2. A gene is a different version of the same allele 3. The genome refers to all of the chromosomes an organism has 4. Mutations are always inherited by the next generation 5. Variation in a species is due to poly nucleotide monomorphisms (PNMs)

Recap – Genomes and Chromosomes Contains plasmids Naked DNA (not associated with proteins) Single circular chromosome DNA in mitochondria DNA in chloroplasts Linear chromosomes associated with histones Plants Animals Prokaryotes Put numbers into relevant columns

3.2 Chromosomes Applications: Cairns’s technique for measuring the length of DNA molecules by autoradiography Comparison of genome size in T2 phages Comparison of diploid chromosome numbers Use of karyotyes to deduce sex and diagnose Down Syndrome in humans Understanding: Prokaryotes have one chromosome consisting of a circular DNA molecule Some prokaryotes also have plasmids but eukaryotes do not Eukaryote chromosomes are linear DNA molecules associated with histone proteins In a eukaryote species there are different chromosomes that carry different genes Homologous chromosomes carry the same sequence of genes but not necessarily the same alleles of those genes Diploid nuclei have pairs of homologous chromosomes Haploid nuclei have one chromosome of each pair The number of chromosomes is a characteristic feature of members of a species A karyogram shows the chromosomes of an organism in homologous pairs of decreasing length Sex is determined by sex chromosomes and autosomes are chromosomes that do not determine sex Skills: Use of online databases to identify the locus of a human gene and its protein product Nature of science: Developments in scientific research follow improvements in techniques: autoradiography was used to establish the length of DNA molecules in chromosomes

When would there be two copies of each gene? Prokaryotes Contain a circular DNA molecule plasmids Bacterial DNA is not associated with proteins (like eukaryotic DNA). There is only one chromosome so one copy of each gene. When would there be two copies of each gene? circular

Plasmids Contain ‘SPECIAL’ genes that are not needed for every day life purposes e.g. Antibiotic resistance genes Not copied at the same time as chromosome so some bacterium have multiple of a particular plasmid and some have none

Plasmids Plasmids can be transferred from one cell to another, allowing genes to spread rapidly through population – Why could this be dangerous? Plasmids are also used in GM to transfer genes between species conjugation One species containing plasmid dies – absorbed by another species

Measuring the length of DNA Summarise Cairn’s technique using diagrams and <30 words Read through this section in Kognity and answer the two checkpoint questions Pg 151

Measuring DNA length Cairn’s technique Grow E.coli cells for 2 generations in a medium with tritiated thymidine. Thymidine contains base Thymine linked to deoxyribose – used by E.coli to make nucleotides in DNA replication Tritiated = contains tritium – a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. E.coli produced radioactively labeled DNA

Measuring DNA length Cairn’s technique Cells placed onto dialysis membrane – cell walls digested using enzyme lysozyme Cells gently burst to release DNA onto surface of dialysis membrane

Measuring DNA length Cairn’s technique Photographic emulsion applied to surface and left in darkness for 2 months Tritium emits high energy electrons which react with the film After 2 months the film is developed and examined with a microscope Dark grains where tritium decayed – indicating the position of the DNA

Measuring DNA length Cairn’s technique Showed a single circular DNA molecule with a length of 1,100 um. Micrometre

3.2 Chromosomes Applications: Cairns’s technique for measuring the length of DNA molecules by autoradiography Comparison of genome size in T2 phages Comparison of diploid chromosome numbers Use of karyotyes to deduce sex and diagnose Down Syndrome in humans Understanding: Prokaryotes have one chromosome consisting of a circular DNA molecule Some prokaryotes also have plasmids but eukaryotes do not Eukaryote chromosomes are linear DNA molecules associated with histone proteins In a eukaryote species there are different chromosomes that carry different genes Homologous chromosomes carry the same sequence of genes but not necessarily the same alleles of those genes Diploid nuclei have pairs of homologous chromosomes Haploid nuclei have one chromosome of each pair The number of chromosomes is a characteristic feature of members of a species A karyogram shows the chromosomes of an organism in homologous pairs of decreasing length Sex is determined by sex chromosomes and autosomes are chromosomes that do not determine sex Skills: Use of online databases to identify the locus of a human gene and its protein product Nature of science: Developments in scientific research follow improvements in techniques: autoradiography was used to establish the length of DNA molecules in chromosomes

Eukaryotes How are eukaryotic chromosomes different? Linear DNA molecules Associated with histone proteins (DNA winds around histones)

Chromosomes In eukaryotes there are different chromosomes carrying different genes. A gene occupies a specific ……….. How do they differ? Humans have 23 pairs Length Position of centromere (not visible here. When will it be visible?)

Chromosomes During mitosis and meiosis chromosomes supercoil. They appear as X shaped after DNA replication during interphase (S). Position of centromere visible connecting two sister chromatids.

Homologous Chromosomes Two chromosomes with same sequence of genes. Are they identical? No…….as they may have different alleles E.g. Both chromosomes have hair colour genes. Each codes for a different colour

Database – finding the loci of human genes Online data bases can find the exact locus of a gene. Follow the instructions on page 154 to search for different gene loci

Haploid Nuclei Has one chromosome of each type Humans: 23 chromosomes Gametes (egg and sperm) Not all eggs/sperm have the same chromosome as meiosis increases variation Alleles are different in each egg and sperm Gets more complicated than that later

Diploid nuclei Has two chromosomes of each type Humans: 46 chromosomes (23 pairs) Haploid cells fuse together during fertilisation producing a diploid zygote.

Number of chromosomes Fundamental characteristic of an organism Different numbers of chromosomes = unlikely to interbreed Chromosome numbers can change in a species and cause speciation. Chromosomes can split or fuse.

Number of chromosomes Organism Number of chromosomes Threadworm 4 Humans 46 Chimp 48 Dog 78

Determining sex In mammals, males have two different sex chromosomes (X and Y) and females have two similar sex chromosomes (X and X). However, in birds males have two similar sex chromosomes (Z and Z), while females have two different sex chromosomes (Z and W).   Complete a genetic cross diagram to show how sex is inherited in birds.

Determining sex How many autosomes do you have? Autosomes = chromosomes that do not determine sex Sex chromosomes = determine sex How many autosomes do you have?

Determining sex All humans have at least one X chromosome Y chromosome contains genes that are not needed for female development

Y chromosome Contains TDF/SRY gene which induces the development of male features Testes Testosterone If no TDF/SRY gene (no Y) – ovaries develop and a female is produced Testis-determining factor (TDF), also known as sex-determining region Y (SRY)

Karyogram & karyotype Karyogram Image of chromosomes arranged in size order Karyotype Property of an organism – number and type of chromosomes Description of the karyogram 23 pairs of chromosomes Homologous pairs X and Y chromosomes Male

Karyogram 23 pairs of chromosomes 3 x chromosome 21 (trisomy 21) Down sydrome Female Karyotype?

Pre-natal testing Before-birth To test of a baby has a genetic disorder (such as Down Syndrome) cells are collected and a karyogram is produced

Cells from a foetus for a karyotype Amniocentesis Needle passes through mother’s abdomen wall Ultrasound guides the needle Needle withdraws a sample of amniotic fluid containing fetal cells Risk of miscarriage 1% 2. Chorionic villus sampling Tool enters the vagina and obtains cells from the chorion (part of the placenta) Can be done earlier Risk of miscarriage 2%
