Chapter 14: The Human Genome

14-1 Human Heredity How many chromosomes does an adult human cell contain? Autosomes – any chromosomes that are not sex chromosomes. Sex Chromosomes – X and Y chromosomes that determine sex of individual. Normal Individuals represented as Males  46, XY Females  46, XX 22 pairs of homologous chromosomes

Human Cell 22 pairs of homologous chromosomes called autosomes 1 pair of sex chromosomes 23rd pair egg, sperm half the number of chromosomes egg carries an x, sperm carries a y or x

ID-ing Chromosomes Chromosomes are identified by 1. SIZE 2. CENTROMERE LOCATION 3. BANDING PATTERNS

Karyotype a picture of chromosomes homologous chromosomes paired together. What are they? Numbered 1-22 in order of size What is the 23rd pair? What does the size of the chromosome indicate?

Alleles Figure 14-6 Dominant – Some genetic disorders are expressed through these alleles Only requires one allele Recessive – Most genetic disorders are transmitted through these alleles Codominant – Sickle Cell Disease

AGENDA Feb 23 Objective: Examine the inheritance of genetic disorders through the analysis of pedigrees. 1. Question of the Day 2. 14-1 Notes - Pedigrees 3. Pedigree Practice Problems 4. Review and Homework Pedigree Problems Genetic Disorders Webquest DUE THURSDAY TEST ON FRIDAY

Genes and the Environment All of our inherited characteristics are governed by our genes. Many traits are polygenic. Other factors influence our phenotypes. Nutrition and Exercise Average height has increased 10 cm in the last 200 years  3.93 inches U.S. and Europe

Pedigree Analysis rely on family histories and medical records to study humans pedigree: diagram that follows the inheritance of a single trait through several generations

Pedigrees record and trace the occurrences of traits within a family.

AGENDA Feb 24 Objective: Identify an individual’s blood type through the solving of Punnett Squares. 1. DO NOW – Review Pedigrees 2. Blood Types and Allele Combinations 3. Problem Solving 4. Review and Homework Problem Solving Packet Genetic Disorders Webquest DUE THURSDAY TEST ON FRIDAY

Blood Group Genes How many different alleles control blood type? How is blood type expressed? How many different blood types are there?

Blood Group Genes Rh blood groups Positive (+) Negative (-) Rh+/Rh+ or Rh+/Rh- Rh-/Rh- Blood Type AB- A allele and B allele + 2 Rh- alleles

Blood Type Problems Solve Punnett Squares to determine the probability of blood types among individuals. See Blood Types Packet

DO NOW Explain why males cannot be carriers for sex-linked disorders.

DO NOW ANSWERED Sex-linked inheritance is directly connected to the X-chromosome. Males only have one X-chromosome and will always express this type of trait/disorder. Females have two X-chromosomes. Women only carrying one allele for the trait/disorder are carriers. Recessive traits/disorders will not be expressed unless both X-chromosomes carry the allele.

DO NOW Feb 25 A mother (type AB blood) and a father (type A blood) have two children. What are the possible genotypes of the children. Show all possible combinations. Solve Punnett Squares to support your answer.

AGENDA Feb 25 Objective: Solve Punnett Squares to represent the inheritance patterns of sex-linked disorders. 1. DO NOW 2. Blood Type Problems Review 3. Sex-linked Inheritance 4. Review and Homework

14-2: Sex-linked Inheritance sex determination XX female XY male sex-linked genes: genes located on the sex chromosomes almost always on the X chromosome Y chromosome contains a few genes for male development

Sex-linked Inheritance males inherit these disorder much more often gets passed from father to daughters, then daughters to their sons examples are hemophilia, colorblindness, Duchenne’s muscular dystrophy

Human Genetic Disorders autosomal genetic disorders albinism recessive allele on chromosome 11 can’t produce melanin cystic fibrosis recessive allele on chromosome 7 heavy mucus clogs lungs and breathing passageways

DO NOW Feb 19 Perform the following dihybrid cross. A homozygous long mane lion that is heterozygous for a loud roar mates with a lioness with a heterozygous long mane and a soft roar. What are the chances that one of the cubs will have a homozygous long mane and a soft roar? List all of the possible genotype and phenotype ratios.

AGENDA Feb 19 Big Question: What is Sex-linked Inheritance? 1. DO NOW 2. Review selected HW problems 3. Chapter 13 Tests 4. More Genetic Disorders 5. The Human Genome Project 6. Review and Homework Read Section 14-2 Details of Genetics Disorders

recessive allele on chromosome 15 tay sachs recessive allele on chromosome 15 suffer from breakdown of the nervous system sickle cell disease recessive allele on chromosome 11 produces an alternate form of hemoglobin that causes the red blood cells to become a sickle shape one DNA base changed Glutamic acid for Valine

Sickle Cell Disease Allele very prominent in African Americans Carried by many individuals Connected to malaria – a parasitic disease that affects red blood cells Individuals who are heterozygous for sickle cell are resistant to malaria When body destroys sickled cells, parasite causing malaria also destroyed. Low oxygen = sickle shape = cells clump together

PKU: phenylketonuria recessive allele on chromosome 12 causes mental retardation Huntington’s disease dominant allele on chromosome 4 lose muscle control and nervous system breaks down

AGENDA Big Question: What is Sex-linked Inheritance? 1. DO NOW 2. Sex-linked Inheritance Section 7-2 3. Pedigree Practice 4. Closing Thoughts HAND IN YOUR KARYOTYPE LABS

Chromosome Number Disorders occurs by nondisjunction: when abnormal number of chromosomes are produced in the sex cells due to them not separating correctly

Turner’s Syndrome either a sperm or an egg is produced without a sex chromosome XO genotype O means sex chromosome is missing sex organs are not fully developed can not have children only in females

Klinefelter Syndrome have an extra X chromosome XXY genotype causes mental retardation can not reproduce only in males

Down Syndrome trisomy 21 means 3 copies of chromosome #21 causes heart and circulatory problems, mental retardation, and a weakened immune system

Other Causes of Disorders deletions: can occur from pieces of chromosomes breaking off and getting lost in meiosis translocation: when pieces of chromosomes break off and become reattached to another

Prenatal Diagnosis want to detect if unborn child will have a disorder two ways amniocentesis: withdraw fluid from sac around fetus chorionic villus sampling: tissue surrounding fetus is removed and examined

Special Topics in Human Genetics barr body: dense region in the nucleus of most cells in human females condensed turned-off X chromosome not found in males because their one X chromosome is active happens in some tissues and in some cells

AGENDA Feb 21 Big Question: What is the Human Genome Project? 1. CHAPTER 14 Problem Solving Test 2. Complete Chapter 14-3 Notes 3. Begin to Study for T2 Exam

14-3 Testing for Alleles DNA probes – specific DNA base sequences that detect the complementary base sequences found in disease causing alleles Cystic Fibrosis and Tay Sachs are examples that use DNA probes.

DNA Fingerprinting Repeats are specific sequences of DNA unique to every individual Do not code for proteins Repeats cut with restriction enzymes Gel electrophoresis separates fragments Labeled with radioactive probes Forensics, detection of inherited diseases, and paternity cases

DO NOW Feb 27 Explain how autosomal recessive disorders are passed down from parent to offspring.

DO NOW ANSWERED Autosomal recessive disorders require both parents to have at least one allele for the disorder. Each parent must then pass this recessive allele on to their child. The genotype for a child with a recessive disorder of this type is aa, ee, tt, etc. Both alleles are recessive (lower-case)
