Down Syndrome (47, +21) Trisomy in Humans
26
Down Syndrome (47, +21) occurs at a frequency of about 0.15%, mental retardation (I.Q. 20 - 50), mean life expectancy is about 17 years, 47, +21 females are fertile, trisomy 21 risk factors, maternal age.
27
Down Syndrome Trisomy in Humans
28
Down Syndrome Critical Genes Chromosome 21 has about + 351 genes, –natural feedback mechanisms limit dosage effects of most of these genes, It is estimated that the improper expression of approximately 20-40 genes produces the variety of phenotypes.
29
Maternal Age and Down Syndrome
30
Maternal Age? in female humans, oocytes arrest in Prophase I before birth, –meiosis continues upon menstruation, –thus, tetrad formation and cellular function must be maintained for decades. and, as mother’s age increases, maternal detection of trisomy may be attenuated and spontaneous abortions drops.
31
Other Human Autosomal Trisomics Edwards Syndrome (47, +18) –0.0125% live births, –mental abnormalities, –“faunlike ears”, “rockerbottom feet”, small jaw, –nearly all die within several weeks of birth, Patau Syndrome (47, +13), – 0.005% live births, –mental abnormalities, –cleft lip, small mal-formed head, “rockerbottom feet”, –mean life expectancy is about 130 days.
32
Autosomal Trisomy Causation Age of Parents, Random Errors, –or genetic predisposition, Especially malfunction of recombination machinery, –crossing over and subsequent recombination are necessary for proper chromosome disjunction.

Chapter 5 Do all of the practice questions (except 20).
44
Chromosomal Mutations Chromosome mutations are variations from the wild-type condition in... –chromosome number, –chromosome structure,
45
Polyploidy …more than two haploid sets of chromosomes are present, –2n = diploid, –3n = triploid, –4n = tetraploid, –etc.
46
Polyploidy Generalities de novo rare in most animal species, known in lizards, fish and amphibians, fairly common in plants, odd numbers of ploidy are not usually maintained, –3n, 5n, etc. rarely found in organisms that rely on sexual propagation.
47
Autopolyploidy... polyploidy resulting from the replication of one or more sets of chromosomes, …the additional set of chromosomes is identical to the normal haploid complement of that species.
48
added 1x 2x
49
Autopolyploidy …can be induced by treating cells with the drug colchicine, â colchicine: is a alkaloid derivative from the autumn crocus (Crocus veneris),...inhibits microtubule polymerization, and thus inhibits the separation of chromosomes during meiosis. Crocus veneris …autumn crocus, …meadow saffron, …naked ladies.
50
Colchicine Treatment 2n cells undergo S-phase, no separation of chromosomes is accomplished, no cell division occurs, at telophase, the nuclear membrane reforms, treatment for one cell cycle leads to 4n cells.
51
Natural Autopolyploidy Heat, cold also affect microtubule polymerization and can lead to autopolyploidy.
52
Allopolyploidy …formed by the union of two or more distinct chromosome sets,...i.e., from different species.
54
The Sad Tail of Raphanobrassica …Vegetable of the Proletariet? Cast Dr. G. Karpechenko, Russian Plant breeder, Brassica oleracea (2n = 18), - cabbage, large above ground food stock, ~value-less root, Raphanus sativus (2n = 18), - the common radish, large root food stock, ~value-less leaves.
55
Super Vegetable? Cabbage Radish 2n 1 = 18 2n 2 = 18 n 1 = 9 n 2 = 9 n 1 + n 2 = 18 sterile spontaneous autopolyploidy 2n 1 + 2n 2 = 36 x
56
Amphidiploid …double diploid, 2n 1 + 2n 2 …have balanced gametes of the type n 1 + n 2, these gametes fuse to make fertile 2n 1 + 2n 2.
57
Raphanobrassica? Roots of cabbage, leaves of radish, –dud-vegetable for Karpechenko, abandoned the project. Revived by the Scottish Plant Breeding Station in Dundee, Scotland, –Raphanobrassica’s high dry matter content makes it an excellent fodder for sheep and cattle.

59
Autopolyploidy Applications Treating a parent plant with colchicine often produces autopolyploidy, resulting in offsprings with larger flowers and/or fruit, 8n8n2n2n 4n4n2n2n

Allopolyploidy Applications B. oleracea (cabbage, cauliflower, Brocolli, kale, etc.) 2n = 18 B. campestris (turnip, turnip rape) 2n = 20 n = 9 n = 10 amphidiploid n 1 + n 2 = 19B. napas ( Oil rape, canola oil) 2n 1 + 2n 2 = 38
61
4n x 2n = 3n? The creation of triploids can be accomplished by crossing a tetraploid with a diploid, Most triploid individuals are sterile.
62

65
Environmental Applications? grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) grass carp prefer pondweeds, do not prefer plants such as cattail, water lily, etc. Triploid grass carp do not reproduce…
66
Polyploidy Summary More than 2 whole sets of chromosomes, Autopolyploidy, –from the same genome, –naturally occurring, or induced, –often results in larger varieties, Allopolyploidy, –from different genomes, –naturally occurring, or induced, –often results in larger varieties, Autotriploids, –most often sterile –can produce beneficial traits.
67
Monoploidy …a haploid of a diploid is monoploid, …has one chromosome set.
68
Monoploid male wasps, bees and ants have only 1 haploid genome, –males develop from unfertilized eggs, gametes are formed by mitosis. Bees (example)
69
Monoploid Applications monoploid plants can be created by culturing pollen grains (n = 1), –the population of haploid organisms is then screened for favorable traits, –the plants are then treated with colchicine which generates a 2n plant homozygous for the favorable trait(s).

Chromosomal Mutations –chromosome number, –structure,
71
Chromosome Structure Changes in chromosome structure can come about due to, deletions duplications rearrangements
72
Chromosomal Deletions …a deletion results in a lost portion of a chromosome, –deletion causative agents, heat, radiation, viruses, chemicals, errors in recombination.
73
Terminal Deletions Off the End
74
Intercalary Deletions From the Middle
75
Recognizing Deletions Intercalary Terminal
76
Homologous Pairs? Intercalary Terminal Hemizygous Hemizygous: gene is present in a single dose. Psuedodominance: hemizygous genes are expressed.
77
Deletions …result in partial monosomy, remember monosomy: 2n, -1, …the organism is monosomic for the portion of the chromosome that is deleted, …as in monosomy, most segmental deletions are deleterious.
78
Cri-du-chat Syndrome (46, -5p)
79
46, -5p...terminal deletion of the small arm (petite arm) of chromosome 5, Cri-du-chat Syndrome, –0.002% live births, –anatomic mutations, –often mental retardation, –abnormal formation of vocal mechanisms.
80
Chromosome Structure Changes in chromosome structure can come about due to, deletions duplications rearrangements
81
Chromosomal Duplication...an event that results in the increase in the number of copies of a particular chromosomal region,
82
Duplication Cause and Effect Causes: –duplications often result from unequal crossing over, –can occur via errors in replication during S-Phase. Effects: –results in gene redundancy, –produces phenotypic variation, –may provide an important source for genetic variability during evolution.
83
Unequal Crossing Over Produces both duplications and deletions!
84
Duplication Phenotypes
85
Duplication in Evolution …essential genes do not tolerate mutation, …duplications of essential genes, followed by mutations, confers adaptive potential to the organism, …new gene family members are ‘recruited’ to perform new functions.
86

99
No centromeres. Deletions. Nonviable gametes. Paracentric
100
Acentric …a chromosome having no centromeres, …segregates to daughter cells randomly, or is lost during cell division, …deletions impart partial monosomy.
101
Paracentric Outcomes 1 Normal Gamete, 1 Inversion Gamete, No Crossover Classes Recombination is not inhibited, but recombinant gametes are selected against.

103
Pericentric Inversion...an inversion in which the centromere is included, ABCABC...a pericentric inversion results in a change in chromosome arm length.
104
Pericentric
105
Recombination and Inversions Paracentric and Pericentric; –1 Normal Gamete, – 1 Inverted Gamete, – (No) Crossover Classes = No Recombination… …in area of inversion. Inversions select against recombinant gametes, thus preserves co-segregation of specific alleles.
106
Inversions and Evolution Inversions ‘lock’ specific alleles together, –all offspring get their alleles from either a wild- type, or inverted chromosome, If the ‘set of alleles’ is advantageous, the set can be maintained in the population.
107

115
Robertsonian Translocations …the fusion of long arms of acrocentric chromosomes,
116
Down Syndrome 95% of Down Syndrome individuals are a result of Trisomy 21, –the probability of having a second Down Syndrome child is usually similar to the population at large, However, there is second cause of Down Syndrome caused by a Robertsonian translocations that is heritable.
