Analysis of heredity: fruit fly crosses

... Mendel proposed that each physical trait of an organism was the result of the action of a separate factor (now called a gene), and that genes could occur in different forms (now alleles) that caused a trait (e.g., flower color) to differ (e.g., purple or white) from one individual to another. Mendel ...

Predicting the outcome of two-factor crosses requires basically the same procedure as that for crosses involving one trait. During meiosis, nonhomologous chromosomes assort independently. This means that ...

Together these results suggest that CRELD1 mutations act in a dominant manner with incomplete penetrance and that CRELD1 is an AVSD susceptibility gene that may act in concert with additional modifier genes at other loci. A separate study by Sarkozy et al. [2005] found no pathogenic mutations in an ...

X-inactivation



X-inactivation (also called lyonization) is a process by which one of the two copies of the X chromosome present in female mammals is inactivated. The inactive X chromosome is silenced by its being packaged in such a way that it has a transcriptionally inactive structure called heterochromatin. As nearly all female mammals have two X chromosomes, X-inactivation prevents them from having twice as many X chromosome gene products as males, who only possess a single copy of the X chromosome (see dosage compensation). The choice of which X chromosome will be inactivated is random in placental mammals such as humans, but once an X chromosome is inactivated it will remain inactive throughout the lifetime of the cell and its descendants in the organism. Unlike the random X-inactivation in placental mammals, inactivation in marsupials applies exclusively to the paternally derived X chromosome.
