  1. CHROMOSOME FUSION?

  2. WHAT IS MOST STRIKING HERE? Compare the Banding Patterns: 6 longest chromosomes of humans (Hu), are matched with 7 chromosomes from three ape species.

  3. WHY COLORED TIPS? Why are the chromosome tips colored?

  4. CHROMOSOME PARTS HeadTelomere All Chromosomes have telomeres at their ends(like shoelace aglets!) Centromere TailTelomere Telomeres have a unique DNA sequence… ttagggttagggttagggttagggttagggttaggg… |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| aatcccaatcccaatcccaatcccaatcccaatccc…

  5. Let’s Narrow Our Focus: 6 longest chromosomes of humans(Hu), matched with 7 chromosomes from chimpanzees ONLY (Ch)

  6. MORE QUESTIONS… Why are TWO shorter chimp chromosomes needed to matchour #2 chromosome? Could our #2 chromosome have formed by the FUSION of TWO shorter chromosomes found in chimpanzees today (#12 and #13)? LIKE THIS…?

  7. Human #2 Chimp #13 Chimp #12

  8. PREDICTION Chimp #13 Human #2 If fusion occurred, then we should see DNA evidence of the head-to-head telomeres together near middle of our #2 chromosome Chimp #12 Fusion Area?

  9. DNA HeadTelomere DNA Sequence for Telomeres: ttagggttagggttaggg… |||||||||||||||||| aatcccaatcccaatccc… Centromere NOTICE: Tandem Repeats in Telomeres: ttagggttagggttaggg… |||||||||||||||||| aatcccaatcccaatccc… Repeated 800-1600 timesin each Telomere TailTelomere

  10. EXPECTATIONS • What will you look for? • tandem repeats in fusion area • Where will you look for them? • middle of our chromosome #2 • How can you look for them? • search online DNA database • What if evidence is NOT found? • fusion may not have happened

  11. CHROMOSOME FUSION • Read the lesson • Do the lesson - Go online • Discuss the results • Explanation? STOP HERECONTINUE ONLY AFTER DOING LESSONor if there’s no time to do the lesson

  12. STOP HERE (Results follow)

  19. Re-Check Banding Patterns Compare other chromosomes online: Human with Chimp, Dog…

  20. MULTIPLE EVIDENCE • Compare hominoid chromosomes • Compare hominoid skulls • Study pattern of hominid chronology • Compare primate hemoglobins What do ALL of these patterns suggest? DO THE LABS!
