DNA Analysis
electrophoresis: separation of molecules in an electric field
DNA moves toward the positive electrode in an electric field due to the
huge number of phosphate groups in the DNA backbone
DNA fragments migrate through the gel proportional to their size
small pieces quickly, large pieces slowly
for agarose gels, bands are usually visualized with ethidium bromide
the percentage of agarose determines what size DNA is separated well
DNA Analysis
normal agarose gels separate tens to
thousands of base pairs
pulsed field gels can separate
thousands to 106 base pair range
by regularly changing the
direction of the electric field
net direction is always toward + end
acrylamide gels separate DNA
down to the level of a single base

Sex-linked Disorders
• A male only receives such
sex-linked alleles from his
mother. (The homologous
Y chromosome is always
inherited from the father.)
• A male therefore needs
only one copy of a sexlinked recessive allele to
exhibit the recessive trait.
• In contrast, a female must
inherit two such recessive
alleles—one from each
parent—to exhibit the trait
Gene variants all follow the
same inheritance pattern (some
exceptions)

Working With
Human Pedigrees
Predicting and Treating
Genetic Disorders
• Other tests analyze
the fluid surrounding
the fetus to detect
chemical
imbalances that
point to specific
disorders.
Karyotyping
Predicting and Treating
Genetic Disorders
•
Standard tests are performed on every
baby born at a hospital in the United
States, whether or not the baby has
any family history for a particular
disease.
• PKU (Phenylketonuria) Test
•
•
a recessive disorder in which a person
cannot process the amino acid
phenylalanine.
If the baby tests positive for
phenylketonuria, the parents can put
the baby on a phenylalanine-controlled
diet.
Such a diet is effective in preventing
the mental disability that is
characteristic of the untreated disorder.
The
test is done after 24 hours of age. A
few drops of blood are taken from your
baby through a heel prick. The blood
test is sent to the laboratory and the
result of the test will be sent to your
family doctor.
