Pack 12 - Inheritance
Genotype:
Genetic makeup of an organism, all alleles an organism has.
Phenotype:
Observable or biochemical characteristics
What is a gene
A sequence of nucleotide bases coding for a polypeptide or functional RNA
An allele is a different version of the same gene
Each gene of diploid cells should have 2 alleles, unless sex chromosones
The locus is the position of a gene on a chromosome
Types of chromosomes:
Homozygous
Alleles on each chromosome are the same
Heterozygous
2 alleles on the chromosome are different
Types of alleles:
Dominant
When present in genotype it's always expressed in phenotype
Recessive
Only expressed when homozygous recessive
Codominance
This is when two alleles both contribute to the phenotype
Monohybrid Inheritance
This is the inheritance of a single gene
Pedigree Diagrams
Diagrams show ancestral relationships and transmission of genetic traits
Exam hint:
If asked whether an allele is dominant or recessive, look for two parents that do not have the characteristic but have children that do have it
Shows it is recessive
Dihybrid Inheritance
Two different characters, determine by different genes located on two different chromosomes are inherited
Mendel's Laws
Law of segregation:
Characteristics of an organism are controlled by genes that occur in pairs, only one of each pair can be carried in a gamete
Law of independent assortment
Each member of a pair of alleles may combine randomly with either of another pair
In terms of meiosis:
Homologous chromosomes pair up in prophase 1
In metaphase 1:
Homologous chromosomes line up on equator in pairs
Random segregation of c'somes either side of equator leads to different combinations and so different alleles in gametes
Homologous chromosomes separated in Anaphase 1
Autosomal linkage
An autosome is a chromosome that is not a sex chromosome
Any two genes occuring on the same chromosome are said to be linked
Autosomal linkage is when two or more genes are carried on the same autosome
Sickle cell anaemia
Due to single base substitution.
Results in one amino acid being altered in the 146 long Beta polypeptide chain
Multiple alleles
Some genes have more than two alleles
Only two of these alleles can be present in an individual at one time
e.g. human blood groups
Epistasis
This is where an allele of one gene affects or masks the expression of another in the phenotype
Example: Coat colour in mice
Gene A controls melanin distribution in hair
Dominant = black bands
Recessive when homozygous = uniformly black
Gene B determines the expression of gene A:
Dominant allele = production of melanin
Recessive = when homozygous no melanin produced.
Sex inheritance in humans
Humans have 22 pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes
Females have two X's
Males have one X one Y
Produce gametes with X and Y
Produce gametes of only X
Sex Linkage
All genes carried on the sex chromosomes are transmitted along with those during sex
Because Y is smaller than X, there is no equivalent part of X to half of Y
This means that in males, recessive alleles on non-homologous part of X will be expressed
This is because there is no equivalent dominant allele
Expressed as: X^N X^a and X^N Y
Haemophilia
This is the failure of the blood to clot and is potentially fatal if not treated.
One cause is the recessive allele of a gene that codes for a protein needed in the clotting process
Stats Tests
The chi-squared test
Used to test whether deviations between observed and expected numbers are significant or not
Null Hypothesis:
No statistically significant difference between observed and expected frequency, any difference is due to chance
Cut off point where p=0.05 is whether you accept or reject null hypothesis
If X^2>critical value or equal too, reject null hypothesis
The probability that the differences occured by chance is less than or equal to 0.05
If X^2<critical value, accept null hypothesis
No significant difference, probability that difference is due to chance is greater and 0.05
Then, calculate degrees of freedom (number of categories minus one)
