Kleinfelter’s Syndrome
Klinefelter’s
Syndrome
Comment: I have read that George
Washington may have had Klinefelter’s.
Taller than average, no children

Phenotype: taller
female, but sexual
development poor.

others???)

Edward’s Syndrome
•
•
•
•
Also known as Trisomy 18
Almost every organ system is affected.
1:10,000 live births.
Children with full Trisomy 18 generally
do not live more than a few months.
• Characteristics: small jaw, low-set ears,
and a strawberry-shaped head.
Patau Syndrome
• This person would suffer from serious
eye, brain, & circulatory defects as
well as cleft palate.
• 1:5000 live births. Children rarely live
more than a few months.

Gene
expression
and inheritance
depends on which
parent passed on
the gene.
Usually
caused
by different
methylations of the
DNA.
Imprints are
"erased" in gamete
producing cells and
re-coded by the
body according to
its sex.
Prader-Willi
Syndrome and
Angelman
Syndrome
Both lack a small
gene region from
chromosome 15.
Male imprint:
Prader-Willi
Female imprint:
Angelman
Gene Mutations
Chromosome “M”
-small circles of DNA
located in mitochondria and
plastids of plants.
Mitochondria reproduces itself
and it passes it DNA along to its
daughter organelle only.
Chromosome “M”
- All “M” Chromosomes come
from mom
These genes help form proteins
involved in respiration. Defects in
these genes cause Mitochondrial
diseases such as mitochodrial
myopathy, diabetes, heart
disease, Alzheimer’s disease.
Cummulative mutations may role
play in aging
