Theme: Organism’s level of realization of genetic information. Gene interactions Lecturer: ass. prof. Tatyana Bihunyak Questions: • • • • • • • Introduction to Genetics and heredity Gregor Mendel – a brief bio Genetic terminology Monohybrid and dihybrid crosses Patterns of inheritance Test cross Gene interactions Introduction to Genetics • GENETICS – branch of biology that deals with heredity and variation of organisms • Chromosomes carry the hereditary information (genes) • Arrangement of nucleotides in DNA • DNA RNA Proteins 2. Gen 1. DNA Cell 4. Genotype 3. Chromosome 7. Population 5. Person 6. Family (generation) Gregor Johann Mendel • Austrian Monk, born in what is now Czech Republic in 1822 • Son of peasant farmer, studied Theology and was ordained priest Order St. Augustine. • Went to the university of Vienna, where he studied botany and learned the Scientific Method • Worked with pure lines of peas for eight years • Prior to Mendel, heredity was regarded as a "blending" process and the offspring were essentially a "dilution"of the different parental characteristics. •Mendel looked at seven traits or characteristics of pea plants • In 1866 he published Experiments in Plant Hybridization, (Versuche über Pflanzen-Hybriden) in which he established his three Principles of Inheritance • He tried to repeat his work in another plant, but didn’t work because the plant reproduced asexually! If… • Work was largely ignored for 34 years, until 1900, when 3 independent botanists rediscovered Mendel’s work. • Mendel was the first biologist to use Mathematics – to explain his results quantitatively. • Mendel predicted The concept of genes That genes occur in pairs That one gene of each pair is present in the gametes Genetics terms you need to know: • Human genetics is the science that learns the peculiarities of the hereditary and variability in human organism • Heredity – is the transmission of characteristics from parent to offspring through the gametes Genetics terms you need to know: • Inheritance – is the way of passing of hereditary information which depends on the forms of reproduction During asexual reproduction the main traits are inherited through spores or vegetative cells, that's why the maternal and daughter cells are very similar. During sexual reproduction the main traits are inherited through gametes. Genetics terms you need to know: Gene – a unit of heredity; a section of DNA sequence encoding a single protein Genotype – is the genetic constitution of an organism (a diploid set of genes) Genome – is a collection of genes of an organism in sex cells (a haploid set of genes) Alleles – two genes that occupy the same position on homologous chromosomes and that cover the same trait Locus – a fixed location on a strand of DNA where a gene or one of its alleles is located Genetics terms you need to know: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 XX 17 18 19 20 21 22 X diploid set of genes Genotype haploid set of genes Genome Genetics terms you need to know: Homozygous – having identical genes (one from each parent) for a particular characteristic. Heterozygous – having two different genes for a particular characteristic. Dominant – the allele of a gene that masks or suppresses the expression of an alternate allele; the trait appears in the heterozygous condition. Recessive – an allele that is masked by a dominant allele; does not appear in the heterozygous condition, only in homozygous. Dominant allele is symbolize with a capital letter Recessive allele is symbolize with the corresponding small letter If both alleles are recessive, the individual is homozygous recessive aa An individual with two dominant alleles is homozygous dominant AA An individual with Aa alleles is a heterozygote • Genotype – describes the organism’s alleles (the genetic makeup of an organisms) • Phenotype – the physical appearance of an organism (Genotype + environment) • Monohybrid cross: a genetic cross involving a single pair of genes (one trait); parents differ by a single trait P = Parental generation F1 = First filial generation; offspring from a genetic cross F2 = Second filial generation of a genetic cross 1. The law of monotony of the first filial generation A - yellow seed; a - green seed P: ♀ AA x ♂ aa G (Gametes): A a F1: Aa (yellow) During crossing two homozygous which are differ from each other by one trait all progeny in the first filial generation is monogyny as well as phenotypic and genotypic 2. The law of segregation A cross between plants obtained from F1 plants. P: ♀ Aa x ♂ Aa G: A, a A, a F2 : AA; Aa; Aa; aa From a pair of contrasting characters (alleles) only one is present in a single gamete and in F2 these characters are segregated in the ratio of three to one (3:1) by phenotype and 1:2:1 by genotype. When gametes are formed in heterozygous diploid individuals, the two alternative alleles segregate from one another. • Getting all yellow seeds was an interesting result in itself • Having viewed these results, Mendel then let the F1 generation, was 6022 yellow seeds and 2001 green seeds. Two things stand out • green seeds disappeared in F1, but come back in F2. • green seeds came back in F2 as a specific proportion of the seeds as a whole. • Today, we know that inheritance occurs by way of gametes, and that it is due to meiosis that each gamete carries only one factor for each trait. • Today, we know that the genes within the gametes are unaffected by the somatic cells. • Mendel's law of segregation is in keeping with a particulate theory of inheritance because individual and separate factors are passed on from generation to generation. • It is the reshuffling of these factors that explains how variations come about and why offspring differ from their parents. Human case: CF • Mendel’s Principles of Heredity apply universally to all organisms. • Cystic Fibrosis: a lethal genetic disease affecting Caucasians. • Caused by mutant recessive gene carried by 1 in 20 people of European descent • CF disease affects transport in tissues – mucus is accumulated in lungs, causing infections. Inheritance pattern of CF If two parents carry the recessive gene of Cystic Fibrosis (c), that is, they are heterozygous (Cc), one in four of their children is expected to be homozygous for CF and have the disease: CC = normal Cc = carrier, no symptoms cc = has cystic fibrosis P: ♀ Cc x G: C, c F2 : CC; Cc; Cc; cc C c C CC Cc c Cc cc ♂ Cc C, c Dihybrid crosses • Matings that involve parents that differ in two genes (two independent traits) For example, flower color: P = purple (dominant) p = white (recessive) and stem length: T = tall t = short Dihybrid cross: flower color and stem length TT PP tt pp (tall, purple) Possible Gametes for parents T P and t p (short, white) tp TP TtPp TP TtPp tp TtPp TtPp F1 Generation: All tall, purple flowers (Tt Pp) Dihybrid cross F2 If F1 generation is allowed to self pollinate, Mendel observed 4 phenotypes Tt Pp Tt Pp (tall, purple) Possible gametes: TP Tp tP tp TP (tall, purple) Tp tP TP TTPP TTPp TtPP Tp TTPp TTpp TtPp tp TtPp Ttpp TtPP TtPp ttPP ttPp tp TtPp Ttpp ttPp ttpp tP Four phenotypes observed Tall, purple (9); Tall, white (3); Short, purple (3); Short white (1) Dihybrid cross: 9 genotypes Genotype ratios (9): Four Phenotypes: 1 TTPP 2 TTPp Tall, purple (9) 2 TtPP 4 TtPp 1 TTpp Tall, white (3) 2 Ttpp 1 ttPP Short, purple (3) 2 ttPp Short, white (1) 1 ttpp Principle of Independent Assortment • Based on these results, Mendel postulated the 3. Principle of Independent Assortment: “Members of one gene pair segregate independently from other gene pairs during gamete formation” Genes get shuffled – these many combinations are one of the advantages of sexual reproduction Relation of gene segregation to meiosis… • There’s a correlation between the movement of chromosomes in meiosis and the segregation of alleles that occurs in meiosis True or False? 1.____Homozygous has identical genes for a particular characteristic 2. ____Heterozygous forms one type of gametes 3. ____ Recessive allele masks the expression of an alternate allele 4._____ Cystic Fibrosis is dominant trait 5. _____ Members of one gene pair segregate independently from other gene pairs during gamete formation Beyond Mendelian Genetics: Incomplete Dominance Mendel was lucky! Traits he chose in the pea plant showed up very clearly… One allele was dominant over another, so phenotypes were easy to recognize. But sometimes phenotypes are not very obvious… Incomplete Dominance Snapdragon flowers come in many colors. If you cross a red snapdragon (RR) with a white snapdragon (rr) RR You get PINK flowers (Rr)! rr Genes show incomplete dominance when the heterozygous phenotype is intermediate. Rr Incomplete dominance When F1 generation (all pink flowers) is self pollinated, the F2 generation is 1:2:1 red, pink, white Incomplete Dominance R r R r R R Rr Rr rr Examples of incomplete dominance • A child with wavy hair as a result of one parent's curly hair and the other's straight hair. • Tay-Sachs disease is an example of the result of incomplete dominance because the gene that makes the antibodies only creates half of the necessary antibodies which creates a vulnerability in the individual to get Tay-Sachs. • One parent has a large lip protrusion, the other parent has a small lip protrusion and the child has an average lip protrusion. • One parent has a high voice, the other parent has a low-pitched voice, so the child has a voice of medium pitch. • Sickle cell disease is the result of incomplete dominance as those who have the disease carry 50% normal and 50% abnomal hemoglobin. • If a red tulip and a white tulip are cross pollinated they result is a pink tulip. • A person with big hands and a person with small hands have offspring with hands of average size. Sickle cell disease is the result of incomplete dominance as those who have the disease carry 50% normal and 50% abnormal hemoglobin. P: ♀ HbAHbA G: HbA F1 : HbAHbS x ♂ HbSHbS HbS Sickling Cells Polymers of Normal hemoglobin deform red Sickle blood cells Incomplete dominance RR - Curly Hair, rr- Straight Hair, RrWavy Hair (Curly + Straight = Wavy) Incomplete Dominance R r R r RR Rr Rr rr Codominance Genotype Phenotype LMLM M LMLN MN LNLN N • Both alleles are equally dominant • Heterozygotes express both alleles = distinct expression of the gene products of both alleles can be detected • MN blood group • F2 genotype and phenotype ratios are 1:2:1 Multiple Alleles • Genes can be characterized by more than 2 alleles • Multiple alleles (>2) can be studied only in populations, because any individual carries only 2 alleles at a particular locus at one time • ABO blood groups – Each individual is A, B, AB, or O phenotype – Phenotype controlled by isoagglutinogen marker on RBC – IA and IB alleles are dominant to the IO allele – IA and IB alleles are codominant to each other Phenotype Possible Genotype Antigen on RBC surface Antibody Made in Plasma A IAIO, IAIA A Anti-B B IBIO,IBIB B Anti-A AB IAIB AB Neither O IOIO O Both Task 1. Mother has I (o) group of blood, father has IV (AB). Can children inherit group of blood of one of their parents? Task 2. The boy has I (o) group of blood, his sister has III (B). Which are their parents’ groups of blood? So, you must know ABO blood type for • *determining of the blood group; • *blood transfusion; • *in paternity suits Blood type tests can never prove that a certain person is the parent of a particular child; they can determine only whether he or she could be Importance of A, B, O blood group antigens in medicine Transfusion compatibility Blood type: AB A B O Donate to: AB A or AB B or AB O, A, B, AB Disease resistance Resistance to cholera and other types of infant diarrhea: AB > A > B > O Possible resistance to other diseases: malaria, syphillis, cancer Another sets of cell surface markers on human red cells are the RH blood group antigens, named for the rhesus monkey in which they first described. • This trait (antigen) is controlled by a single allele pair in 1 chromosome. • The rhesus-positive allele Rh is dominant over the rhesus-negative allele rh. • About 85 % of adult humans have the Rh cell surface marker on their red blood cells, and are called Rh-positive (RhRh, Rhrh). • Rh-negative persons lack this cell surface marker because they are homozygous recessive for the gene encoding it (rhrh). Hemolytic disease of the newborn If an Rh-negative person is exposed to Rhpositive blood, the Rh surface antigens of that blood are treated like foreign invaders by the Rh-negative person’s immune system, which proceeds to make antibodies directed against the Rh antigens. This most commonly happens when an Rh-negative woman may have children who are Rh positive if the father is Rh positive. RhRh, Rhrh = rhesus-positive rhrh = rhesus-negative P: ♀ rhrh G: rh F1 : Rh x ♂ RhRh Rh Hemolytic disease of the newborn In the first pregnancy, this factor causes no complication, but during birth, blood cells of the child enter the mother’s bloodstream, where they induce the production of “antiRh” antibodies. Then, in subsequent pregnancies, antibodies from the mother pass to the fetus and cause its red blood cells to clump, leading to condition called erythroblastosis fetalis. Hemolytic disease of the newborn (erythroblastosis fetalis) Hemolysis leads to elevated bilirubin levels. After delivery bilirubin is no longer cleared (via the placenta) from the neonate's blood and the symptoms of jaundice (yellowish skin and yellow discoloration of the whites of the eyes) increase within 24 hours after birth. Like any other severe neonatal jaundice, there is the possibility of acute or chronic kernicterus. Profound anemia can cause high-output heart failure, with pallor, enlarged liver and/or spleen, generalized swelling, and respiratory distress. The prenatal manifestations are known as hydrops fetalis; in severe forms this can include petechiae and purpura. The infant may be stillborn or die shortly after birth. Hemolytic disease of the newborn (erythroblastosis fetalis) Treatment After birth, treatment depends on the severity of the condition, but could include temperature stabilization and monitoring, phototherapy, transfusion with compatible packed red blood, exchange transfusion with a blood type compatible with both the infant and the mother, sodium bicarbonate for correction of acidosis and/or assisted ventilation. Hemolytic disease of the newborn (erythroblastosis fetalis) Treatment Rhesus-negative mothers who have had a pregnancy who are pregnant with a rhesuspositive infant are offered Rh immune globulin (RhIG) at 28 weeks during pregnancy, at 34 weeks, and within 72 hours after delivery to prevent sensitization to the D antigen. It works by binding any fetal red cells with the D antigen before the mother is able to produce an immune response and form anti-D IgG. Superdominance one dominant allele in heterozygous has more expressive manifestation than in homozygous state • Example: Dominant gene B determines brachydactyly (short fingers). Homozygous dominant persons with genotype BB don’t survive; they die in the embryonic stage. Person with genotype Bb Epistasis one gene masks the phenotypic effect of another entirely different gene • A pair of genes at one locus may prevent the expression of a pair of genes at another locus. • Such genes are called epistatic genes. • Color of some fowls is result of interaction between two non-allelic genes: C—gene of colored fowls, c— gene of white fowls, I—gene, that masks the phenotypic effect of gene C (epistatic gene), i—gene, that does not masks the P: ♀ CCII (white) x ♂ ccii (white) phenotypic effect of gene C. When the G: CI ci CcIi fowls are inbred, F2 includes white F1 : CcIi (white) and colored fowls in the ratio of 13:3. Continuous variation (polimery) • Different dominant non-allele's genes affect on one trait, making it more expressive • Traits determined by more than one gene are polygenic - meaning "many genes" - or quantitative traits. Continuous variation • Usually, several genes each contribute to the overall phenotype in equal, small degrees • The combined actions of many genes produce a continuum, or continuously varying expression, of the trait. • Example: Skin color is familiar example of polygenic trait in humans. Skin color is quantitative trait, that are controlled by two pairs of genes A1a1, A2a2. Let’s sign skin color as • A1A1A2A2 – very dark • A1A1A2a2 or A1a1A2A2 — dark • A1a1A2a2 — medium brown • A1a1a2a2 or a1a1A2a2 — light • a1a1a2a2 — white (pale skin). TASK A woman with white skin married a medium-brown man. What is the skin color possible for their children? P: ♀a1a1a2a2 ♂ A1a1A2a2 G: a1a2 A1A2, A1a2, a1A2, a1a2 F1: A1a1A2a2; A1a1a2a2; a1a1A2a2; a1a1a2a2 Pleiotropy • Often an individual allele will have more than one effect on the phenotype. • Such allele is said to be pleiotropic. • Pleiotropic relationships occur because in examine the characteristics of organisms; we are studying the consequences of the action of products made by genes. • Pleiotropy occurs in genetic diseases that affect a single protein found in different parts of the body. This is the case for Marfan syndrome. Marfan syndrome (MS) • Autosomal dominant defect in elastic connective tissue protein called fibrillian • Fibrillian is abundant in the lens of the eye, in the aorta, and in the bones of the limbs, fingers, and ribs • MS symptoms include lens dislocation, long limbs, spindly fingers, and a cavedin chest True or False? 1.____ Incomplete dominance if heterozygous phenotype intermediate between the two homozygous 2. ____A human with 0 blood has both A and B antigenes 3. ____ Skin color is example of polygenic trait in humans 4. _____IA and IB alleles are codominant to each other 5. _____A single pleiotropic gene can affect several traits Thank you for attention !
