Biology: Genetics Autosomal (body cells) Dominant Inheritance Dominant gene located on 1 of the “regular cells” Letters used are upper case… “BB or Bb” Affected individuals have to carry at least 1 dominant gene (heterozygous or homozygous) Passed onto males and females Every person affected must have at least 1 parent with the trait Does not skip generations E.g. Huntington’s disease, Marfan syndrome This Powerpoint is hosted on www.worldofteaching.com Please visit for 100’s more free powerpoints Autosomal DominantDominantMarfan syndrome Marfan syndrome (or Marfan's syndrome) is a genetic disorder of the connective tissue. tissue. It is inherited as a dominant trait. It is carried by a gene called FBN1, FBN1, which encodes a connective protein called fibrillinfibrillin-1. Because it is dominant, people who have inherited one affected FBN1 gene from either parent will have Marfan's. Parents have a 50/50 chance of passing on the gene to their children. People with Marfan's are typically tall, with long limbs and long thin fingers. The most serious complication is defects of the heart valves and aorta. aorta. It may also affect the lungs, lungs, eyes, dural sac surrounding the spinal cord, cord, skeleton and hard palate. palate. Autosomal (body cells) Recessive Inheritance The recessive gene is located on 1 of the autosomes Letters used are lower case…. “bb” Unaffected parents (heterozygous) can produce affected offspring (if they get both recessive genes ie homozygous) Inherited by both males and females Can skip generations If both parents have the trait then all offspring will also have the trait. The parents are both homozygous. E.g. cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anaemia, thalassemia 1 Thalassemia (from Greek θαλασσα, θαλασσα, thalassa, sea + αίµα, αίµα, haima, blood; British spelling, "thalassaemia") is an inherited autosomal recessive blood disease. disease. In thalassemia, the genetic defect results in reduced rate of synthesis of one of the globin chains that make up hemoglobin. hemoglobin. This causes anemia. anemia. Thalassemia is a quantitative problem of too few globins synthesized, whereas sicklesickle-cell anemia (a hemoglobinopathy) hemoglobinopathy) is a qualitative problem of synthesis of an incorrectly functioning globin. globin. The disease is particularly prevalent among Mediterranean peoples. Incomplete dominance Incomplete dominance In a heterozygous organism, neither gene is dominant, both genes are expressed equally Capital letters used for both alleles Snap dragons- red = RR, white= WW, pink = RW Cows- brown = BB, white= WW, roan=BW CoCo- dominance Occurs when alternative alleles are present in the genotype and fully observed in the phenotype E.g. ABO blood grouping system, where a single gene locus features multiple alleles- IA, IB, and i. Individuals carrying alleles for both A and B express both in the phenotype AB. CoCo- dominance Genotype IA IA or IAi IB IB, or IBi IAIB ii Phenotype (blood group) A B AB O 2 Sex linked inheritance Genes are carried on the sex chromosomes (X or Y) Sex-linked notation XBXB normal female XBXb carrier female XbXb affected female XBY normal male XbY affected male Sex linked dominant disorders Dwarfism Sex linked inheritance Dominant Dominant gene on X chromosome Affected males pass to all daughters and none of their sons Genotype= XAY If the mother has an X- linked dominant trait and is homozygous (XAXA) all children will be affected If Mother heterozygous (XAXa) 50% chance of each child being affected E.g. dwarfism, rickets, brown teeth enamel. Sex linked Inheritance Recessive Gene located on the X chromosome More males than females affected (males inherit X from mother) Females can only inherit if the father is affected and mother is a carrier (hetero) or affected (homo) An affected female will pass the trait to all her sons Daughters will be carriers if father is not affected Males cannot be carriers (only have 1 X so either affected or not) Can skip generations E.g. colour blindness, haemophilia, Duchene muscular dystrophy Sex linked recessive problem a) b) b) c) c) d) d) e) e) f) Red-green colour blindness in men is caused by the presence of a sex-linked recessive gene c, whose normal allele is C. Can two colour blind parents produce a normal son? No Can they produce a normal daughter? No Can two normal parents produce a colourblind son or daughter? Son only…gets it from mom Can a normal daughter have a colourblind father or mother? Yes… but not both Can a colourblind daughter have a normal father or mother? Mother only 3 Sex linked Inheritance in Drosophila General Pedigree Autosomal Dominant Pedigree Look for: Trait in every generation Once leaves the pedigree does not return Every person with the trait must have a parent with the trait Males and females equally affected Autosomal dominant pedigree 4 Autosomal Recessive Pedigree Autosomal recessive Look for: Skips in generation Unaffected parents can have affected children Affected person must be homozygous Males and females affected equally Sex linked Dominant pedigrees Look for: More males being affected Affected males passing onto all daughter (dominant) and none of his sons Every affected person must have an affected parent Sex linked recessive pedigrees More ales being affected Affected female will pass onto all her sons Affected male will pass to daughters who will be a carrier (unless mother also affected) Unaffected father and carrier mother can produce affected sons 5 Sex linked recessive 6
