Warm Up n Complete Edpuzzle on pedigrees n If you haven’t completed Edpuzzle from yesterday do so now n You will have 10 minutes before we start the notes
Karyotypes What are they? ? How do we use them?
Normal Karyotype--male
Normal Karyotype--female
Is this person female or male?
How are DNA samples obtained for karyotypes?
What to look for? n Are there 46 chromosomes? n Are there 2 identical pairs of each autosome and 2 sex chromosomes? n Are there any rearrangements between chromosomes or large deletions?
Trisomy 21 or Down Syndrome 1 in 700 births 47 chromosomes XY or XX #21 Trisomy Nondisjunction 3
Correlation between mother’s age and Trisomy 21 incidence
Turners syndrome caused by Nondisjunction Monosomy
Male or Female? Is this a normal karyotype? ? XXY Male (Extra X)
Klinefelter syndrome n XXY on 23 rd pair n Male with some female characteristics n small testes that do not produce as much testosterone as usual n Delayed puberty n Reduced body hair n infertility
Deletion— 18 Q Deletion Syndrome
If there are chromosomal number abnormalities, how do they form? n Meiosis: the process of creating sperm or egg from a diploid cell n If there is a mistake when chromosomes are separating, then the resulting sperm or egg will have too many or too few chromosomes.
Nondisjunction
What we can’t see n Individual DNA strands or genes n The number of genes in any given area of a chromosome. n The presence or location of small mutations. (Scientists cannot predict diseases caused by small mutations within genes.
Other chromosomal disorders that can arise?
Problems with chromosomes n Duplication: copied parts of chromosome A A B B C B D B C D
Problems with chromosomes n Deletion: missing parts of chromosome A A B D C D
Problems with chromosomes n Inversion: parts of chromosome tched A A B C C B D D
Chromosomal mutations Deletion Duplication Inversion Translocation
Human genetic disorders from deleterious genes n Sometimes the alleles inherited contribute to disorders and not from the number or shape of the chromosomes. Sex-linked: genes found on X or Y chromosome 2. Recessive: requires 2 allele copies to express disorder 3. Dominant: requires only 1 allele copy to express disorder 1.
Recessive disorders
Dominant disorder
