HUMAN GENETICS What can go wrong? Chromosome Mutations Gene Mutations Chromosomal Abnormalities • 1 infant in 200 newborns has a chromosomal abnormality • 28% of first trimester miscarriages have a chromosomal abnormality • Abnormalities in larger chromosomes don’t usually survive A change in the DNA code of an organism is called a ______________________ Mutations can be _______________ OR ______________ BENEFICIAL MUTATIONS Help an organism survive and reproduce Provide variation in population for natural selection to act upon Ex: White fur if you live in a snowy place Image from: http://www.cheryllavender.com/Snow%20Rabbit.jpg HARMFUL MUTATIONS Can result in death =___________ (even before birth) Cause a genetic disorder Cause cancer SOMATIC CELL MUTATIONS If the change happens in a BODY CELL (lung, liver, brain, muscle, etc.) = ______________________ Somatic cell mutations can: ______________________ ______________________ _____________ BUT won’t be passed on to offspring GERM CELL MUTATION If the change happens in Gametes (sperm & eggs) = _______________________ Can be passed on to offspring What can go wrong? ___________MutationsChanges in an individual gene __________________Mutations Changes in the number of chromosomes ADDITION Putting in extra bases during copying ATT C GAG C T AT T C G TAA G C T SUBSTITUTION Changes one base for another ATT C GAG C T ATT C G ATT G C T DELETION ________________________________________ Piece of whole chromosome is lost Image from: http://www.biology-online.org/2/8_mutations.htm DUPLICATION Piece of DNA is copied too many times ________________________________________________ Image from: http://www.biology-online.org/2/8_mutations.htm INVERSION Segment flips and reads backwards Image from: http://www.biology-online.org/2/8_mutations.htm TRANSLOCATION Segment breaks off and joins a different non-homologous chromosome Image from: http://www.biology-online.org/2/8_mutations.htm GENE MUTATIONS Changes in the DNA code of a single gene ___________ ____________ ______________________ PROTEINS are built from AMINO ACID subunits Image by: Riedell Each group of 3 nitrogen bases codes for a different amino acid There are 20 different AMINO ACIDS used by cells to make PROTEINS Proteins are made by joining amino acids together in long chains Image from: http://www.ust.hk/roundtable/hi-tech.series/1_b1.jpg Harmful Gene Mutations Point mutations – change a _________ base in DNA code Frame shift mutations change _____________ bases in code FRAME SHIFT MUTATIONS Caused by changes in code that are NOT multiples of DNA message is read in groups of three nitrogen bases FRAME SHIFT MUTATIONS thefatcatranandran the fat cat ran and ran ____________________ DELETION theatcatranandran _____________________ the atc atr ana ndr an FRAME SHIFT MUTATIONS at beginning of gene are more damaging than those at end because more of gene is changed thefatcatranandran ____________________ the fat cat ran and ran DELETION near front theatcatranandran the atc atr ana ndr an _____________________ DELETION near end thefatcatranandrn _____________________ HUMAN GENETIC DISORDERS Caused by Gene Mutations DELETION ________________________________________ Piece of whole chromosome is lost Image from: http://www.biology-online.org/2/8_mutations.htm Cri-du-chat (Cat cry) (5p-) • 1 in 50,000 births • More common in girls • Mewing cry in infancy • Missing piece of number 5 • Mental retardation • 50% have heart defects Prader-Willi Syndrome • Deletion in chromosome 15 • Feeding problems: poor weight gain in infancy, won’t eat • Ages 1-6 excessive, rapid weight gain • Under developed sex organs • Mild to moderate retardation • Obsession with food • Complications from problems associated with obesity (heart attack, high blood pressure, diabetes) Prader-Willi syndrome Victor at age 1 Victor at age 2 SUBSTITUTION Changes one base for another ATT C GAG C T AT T C TAG C T A gene that is flipped and reads backwards will not work. A gene that is moved to another chromosome will not separate from its partner during meiosis. One cell can get 2 copies of gene, one cell gets none. SICKLE CELL ANEMIA CAUSE: (autosomal recessive) A changed to T (glu to val) gene on chromosome #11 that codes for part of hemoglobin protein (carries oxygen in blood) SICKLE CELL ANEMIA SYMPTOMS: Sickle shaped Red Blood Cells in hh persons Circulatory problems Loss of blood cells (anemia) Organ damage DEATH SICKLE CELL ANEMIA More common in African Americans 1 in 500 = hh 1 in 10 = Hh carriers for gene Hh persons have Sickle cell TRAIT make some normal RBC’s’ ; some sickled cells Having two copies of gene (hh) makes a person sick Having one copy (Hh)- gives person resistance to MALARIA http://www-klinik.uni-mainz.de/Zentrallabor/Lab-Web/Bilder/Malaria_5.jpg DELETION ________________________________________ Piece of DNA code for one gene is lost Image from: http://www.biology-online.org/2/8_mutations.htm Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy CAUSE: (X linked recessive) DELETION in gene that codes for a muscle protein Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) SYMPTOMS: 1 in 3500 male births Appears before age 5 Progressive muscle weakening Most in wheelchair by age 13 Eventually lethal DUPLICATION Piece of DNA is copied too many times ________________________________________________ Image from: http://www.biology-online.org/2/8_mutations.htm FRAME SHIFT MUTATIONS Changes multiple bases in code thefatcatranandran the fat cat ran and ran ____________________ DUPLICATION thefatcatranandandandandran the fat cat ran and and and ran ___________________________ HUNTINGTON’S CAUSE: Autosomal dominant 40-100 CAG Repeats at end of gene on chromosome 4 HUNTINGTON’S SYMPTOMS: Seen in both males and females • Degenerative brain disorder • Symptoms appear age 30-40 (Usually after having children) • Lose ability to walk, think, talk, reason • 50/50 chance of passing it to child Until now people didn’t know they had the gene, until after they had already had children. Now there is a test to tell if you have the gene before symptoms appear. Would you want to know if there is NO cure?

Chromosome Mutations Changes in chromosome number Changes in chromosome number __________________(monosomy) ____________________________ EX: Turner’s syndrome - X0 ____________________(trisomy) ____________________________ EX: Down’s syndrome – 3 #21’s Kleinfelter’s syndrome- XXy NON-DISJUNCTION A homologous pair sticks together and doesn’t separate at MEIOSIS. One cell gets 2 copies of the chromosome the other cell gets none. Normal Meiosis Nondisjunction Nondisjunction • Chromosomes don’t separate at anaphase • Cell gets 2 copies of a chromosome OR none • After fertilization new baby gets 3 of each chromosome (trisomy) or only 1 copy of each (monosomy) Normal division Non-disjunction Human Abnormalities Caused by Non-Disjunction Down’s syndrome Patau syndrome Kleinfelter syndrome Turner’s syndrome Xyy Down’s syndrome (trisomy 21) Down’s syndrome (trisomy 21) • 1 in 660 births • Similar facial features • Slanted eyes • Protruding tongue Down’s syndrome (trisomy 21) Simian line on palm Down’s syndrome (trisomy 21) • Most common chromosomal abnormality • 50% have heart defects that need surgery to repair • Mental retardation • Risk increases with age of mom Patau syndrome (trisomy 13) Patau syndrome (trisomy 13) • Can be traced back 300 years in literature • 1st identified as a chromosomal cause in 1960 • 1 in 7000 births (rare) Patau syndrome (trisomy 13) Cleft lip & palate Eye abnormalities (too small or missing) Patau syndrome (trisomy 13) Low set ears Polydactyly Turner’s syndrome (monosomy) Turner’s syndrome XO • • • • • • • • 1 in 5000 births Female = XO Small size Slightly decreased intelligence 35% have heart abnormalities Hearing loss common Broad chest Undeveloped ovaries/can’t have children Kleinfelter syndrome Xxy (trisomy) Kleinfelter syndrome • 1 in 1000 births • Male = XXy • Average to slight decrease in intelligence • Small testes/ can’t have children • Usually not discovered until puberty when don’t mature like peers Xyy syndrome • Xyy males • Taller • Average intelligence • Some study show increased learning disabilities • Most lead normal lives
