Patterns of Chromosome Inheritance Chapter 24
Karyotyping • Karyotype • Size-ordered chart of the metaphase chromosomes of an individualcell • Chromosomal aberration • A mutation that is large enough to see under a light microscope
Changes in Chromosome Number • Nondisjunction • Result after fertilization: • Trisomy • Monosomy
Changes in Sex Chromosome Number • Y chromosome-determines maleness. • SRY gene produces a testis-determining factor • Caused by non-disjunction
Non-disjunction in Sex Chromosomes Y chromosome-determines maleness. Results of non-disjunction?: XXX XXY XYY X0 0Y Survivable with problems Survivable with problems Survivable with problems Survivable with problems Lethal
Non-disjunction in Sex Chromosomes • Turner Syndrome --XO • Klinefelter Syndrome—XXY • Poly-X Females---XXX • Jacobs Syndrome---XYY
Changes in Chromosome Structure • Mutation– a permanent genetic change. • Chromosome mutation--change in chromosome structure. • Types: • Inversion • Translocation • Deletion • Duplication
Sex-Linked Traits • Traits controlled by genes on the X or Y chromosomes are sex-linked although most are unrelated to gender. • An allele on the X chromosome that is in the region where the Y chromosome has no alleles will express even if recessive; it is termed X-linked. • A female would have to have two recessive genes to express the trait; a male would only need one.
X-Linked Alleles • The key for an X-linked problem shows the allele attached to the X as in: • XB = normal vision • Xb = color blindness. • Females with the genotype XBXb are carriers because they appear to be normal but each son has a 50% chance of being color blind depending on which allele the son receives. • XbXb and XbY are both colorblind.
X-Linked Disorders • Red-green color blindness • Muscular dystrophy. • Hemophilia.
