Transcription and Translation DNA (gene) Nucleus Transcription mRNA mRNA Ribosome Translation Protein
Introns and Exons Introns are non-coding regions Exons are coding regions
Codons and mistakes Start codon: AUG Stop codons: UAG, UGA, UAA Single nucleotide polymorphism can result in… • Mis-sense: Codes for a different aa • Non-sense: Doesn’t code for an aa. Acts as a stop codon
Mitosis and Meiosis Mitosis: Cell division in which two identical daughter cells are produced Meiosis: Cell division in which the chromosome number is halved
Mitosis: Stages PMAT Prophase (Prometaphase) Metaphase Anaphase Telophase
Mitosis: Stages Prophase: Chromatin condenses to chromosomes Prometaphase: Nuclear membrane disintegrates. Chromosomes attach to microtubules
Mitosis: Stages Metaphase: Chromosomes line-up on equatorial plate Anaphase: Sister chromatids are separated and pass to opposite poles
Mitosis: Stages Telophase: Nuclear membranes form, chromosomes unfold Cytokinesis: Cell divides
Meiosis • PMA(T) X2 • Meiosis 1 • Where chromosome number is halved • Crossing-over between non-sister chromatids (M1) • Meiosis 2 • Sister chromatids separate • Haploid cells produced
Meiosis Genetic diversity • Crossing over between non-sister chromatids • Random assortment on metaphase plate
Gametogenesis Gametogenesis: Formation of haploid gametes in precursor cells (in testes/ovaries) Differences between sexes: • Male: Meiotic division starts at puberty • Female: Meiosis 1 completed at ovulation, Meiosis 2 if fertilisation occurs
Gametogenesis Mendel's second law (Law of independent assortment): Alleles of one gene sort into gametes independently of the alleles of another gene
Gonadal Mosaicism Gonadal mosaicism: mutation in primordial germ cell. All gametes from it are affected Mother
Genetic Diseases • Phenotype = The appearance of an individual resulting from interaction of the environment and genotype • Genotype = The genetic constitution of an individual The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Autosomal Dominant • Manifests in heterozygous state • Both males and females are effected equally • 50% chance of inheriting disorder • e.g. Achondroplasia, Marfan syndrome, Huntington’s disease The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Sex Linked • Males = XY Females = XX • X linked genes never pass from father to son • Males can never be carriers • X linked Dominant: • Expressed and transmitted by both sexes • Occurs twice as frequently in females as males • Difficult to distinguish from AD • e.gHypophostphataemia rickets • X linked Recessive : • More males than females show the phenotype • Affected male would usually have no effected offspring but all the daughters would be carriers • e.g Haemophilia, Duchenne muscular dystrophy The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
Sex Linked The Peer Teaching Society is not liable for false or misleading information…
