Axel Hillmer 2005
Observed Pattern baldness
x-chromosome hypothesis
conducted Linkage analysis study
Linkage Analysis Study
inheritance of genetic variants known to be on X chromosomes
SNPs aka Single Nucleotide polymorphism
Positions in the genome where individuals vary in a single nucleotide = genetic variants
Recombination
breakdown of linkage b/w genes
Amount o/Recombination
amount of recombination b/w genes is directly related to the distance between them
Whose method did Hillmer uses for his pattern baldness experiment?
Thomas Hunt Morgan and Alfred Sturtevant : demonstrated genes that can be mapped by determining the recombination b/w genes
Principle of segregation
each individual diploid organism possesses 2 alleles for a charcteristc, each at the same loci on each chromosoome
Principle of independent assortment
processes of segregation where the alleles at a locus act independent of alleles at other loci

9:3:3:1
Independent separation of alleles results in recombination
sorting of alleles into new combinations
Walter Sutton , 1903
Chromosome theory of heredity
Linked genes
genes located close together on the same chromosomes; belong to the same linked group and are inherited together
Cross over
genes switched b/w homologous chromosomes
Prophase 1 of Meiosis
Complete linkage
genes located close together and do not cross (rare)
What is a test cross?
Illustration of the effects of linkage
traits appearing in progeny reveal which alleles were transmitted.
Nonrecombinant (parental) gametes
contain only original combinations of alleles present in the parents
Recombinant gametes
new combinations of alleles
Recombination frequency
percentage of recombinant progeny produced in a cross
What's the Chi-Square equation?
χ^2 = Σ (# observed - # expected)^2/(# expected)
Coupling/cis configuration
arrangement where wild type genes are found on 1 chromosome and mutant on the other
Repulsion Configuration
each chromosome contain one wild type and one mutant
Interchromosomal recombination
genes located on different chromosomes `
intrachromosomal recombination
interaction b/w genes on the same chromosome
How can a 3 point test cross be used?
Map three linked genes
