|
|

every double helix is copied (number of chromosomes does not change) 1 Chromosome=> 2 sister chromatids of a centromere
|
|

|
no change in chromosomes...
metabolism and growth prepare for M Phase |

|
division into 2 new daughter cells
|
|

|
|
Diploid
|
2n, genes in pairs
|
|
TDF gene
|
testis determining factor;
females develop in the absence of TDF |
|
Mitosis
|
diploid-->1 division--> 2 diploid cells (genetically identical to each other and parent cell)
|
|
Meosis
|
diploid--> 2 divisions--> 4 haploid cells (in gametes, chromosome # is halved)
|
|
Mitosis- Prophase
|
1. Coiling on DNA around Histones to make diense chromosomes--> 2 dense sister chromatids with kinetochores hanging off of it
2. Nuc. Mb comes apart 3. Polymerization into tubules= organization of microtubules into 2 fibers at either end of cell= spindle fibers==> one captures each sister. |
|
Mitosis- Metaphase
|
Line up at center of cell
Once everyone is captured by a spindle fiber= Anaphase |
|
Mitosis- Anaphase
|
Depolymerization of the spindle fibers= pulling sister chromatids= CHROMOSOME(not a sister chromatid)
|
|
Mitosis- Telephase
|
Chromosome begin to decondense
Forms new nuclear mb Cytokinesis= New cells(diploid) just not duplicated yet |
|
Meosis- Prophase I
|
1. condense DNA into managable packages
2. homologous pairs physically come together to form 23 couples 3. random crossing (tetrads) over occurs b/w mat and pat 4. nuc mb comes apart 5. polymerization of microtubules |
|
Meiosis- Metaphase I
|
spindle fibers are forming kinetochore
2 lines of 23 pairs across from each other |
|
Meosis- Anaphase I
|
depolymerization of spindle fibers
|
|
Meosis- Telephase I
|
cytokinesis
|
|
Meosis II
|
same as Mitosis
4 independant haploid cells |
|
Spermatogenesis
|
spermstogonium-> matures into primary spermatocyte-> meiosis I
2 spermatocyte--> Meoisis II--> haploid spermatotids |
|
spermatogonium
|
arise from testicular stem cells
each stem cell divides into 1 spermatogonium and 1 stem cell (70 day cycle) |
|
Oogenesis
|
Oogonium--> primary oocyte--> meiosis I (cytoplasmic division not equal= nucleus is on one side)--> 1- secondary oocyte and 1 polar body(little cytolasm= cell will disintegrate)--> meosis II --> 1 ovum and 3 polar bodies
|
|
sperm entry into ovum triggers what?
|
Meoisis II
|
|
Alleles
|
forms of a gene
|
|
Monohybrod cross genotype
|
1:2:1
|
|
Monohybrid cross Phenotype
|
3:1
|
|
Test Cross
|
testing for the allele of an unknown
|
|
Carriers
|
possess on recessive copy but does not express the trait
|
|
Modes of Inheritance
|
X linked dom
X linked rec Y linked Auto dom Auto rec |
|
Achondroplasia
|
Autosomal dominant
|
|
If parents look the same and are capable of having babies that look different they are...
|
HYBRID
|
|
Red/ Green color blindness
|
X linked recessive
affects mostly men |
|
Duchene Muscular Dystrophy
|
X linked recessive
disproportionately affects women |
|
Ricketts
|
X linked dominant
|
|
Polydactyly
|
Autosomal Dominant
Limited Penetrance 90% |
|
Variable Expressivity
|
the degree to which the affected people show it.
|
|
Limited penetrance
|
% of people who inherit the gene who show the trait
|
|
Bending Theory
|
blend parents
i.e. black + white= grey |
|
Snap Dragons
|
incomplete dominance
Red Pink and white |
|
Epistasis
|
the expression of one gene can affect the expression of another
|
|
Albinism
|
Epistasis
lack on melanin producing enzyme |
|
X chromosome
|
vital for life
|
|
Bar body
|
in female; one X is being expressed and used , the other X chromosome is being compacted and for the most part inactivated= bar body
|
|
Mosaics
|
women- not every cell is reading different X chromosomes
Calico cats= patches of orange and red |
|
CoDominance
|
if you inherit 2 different alleles of a gene, you express both
|
|
ABO Blood type
|
CoDominance and multiple alleles
|
|
When every generation is affected...
|
Dominant
|
|
Prader Willi Syndrome
|
deletion of a piece of chromosome 15 on the paternal chrom.
-short -mild--> moderate MR -poor msl tone -hypogonadia -obese (eat constantly= hyperphagia, choking is a big problem) -maternal chromosome will not compensate--> maternal chrom is inaccessible- you can't express the healthy genes |
|
Imprinting
|
inaccessible on that particular chromosome (there something blocking that gene)
|
|
Angelman Syndrome
|
deletion of a piece of chromosome 15 on the maternal chromosome
-severe MR -seizures -perpetual smile -uncoordinated gate (ataxia) -the complement on the paternal chromosome is imprinted |
|
Sex Influenced
|
Sometimes it may affect males (dominant) differently that females (recessive)
|
|
Male Pattern Baldness
|
Autosomal Allele
behaves as dominant in males and recessive in females |
|
Mitochondral DNA (mtDNA)
|
mutates very rapidly
no proofreading fx--> mutations are not edited out This is a problem in tissues that have heavy need for ATP |
|
Mitochondral Inheritance
|
all from mother
we do not receive paternal mtDNA |
|
Mitochonral Myopathies
|
a series of disorders the affect skeletal msls
severe fatigue |
|
Levels of Variable Expressivity
|
How many bad mt you have
which tissue has them how long it takes to accumulate them |
|
Leiber Hereitary Optic Neuropathy (LHON)
|
mt disorder
-progressive degeneration of optic nerve -kicks in during 20s, some vision loss -loss of central vision--> loss of color vision--> optic nerve degnerates--> total blindness -optic nerve has very high need for ATP ****cytoplasmic donation is the only way to avoid this**** |

|
Substitution
|
base is removed and subed with another base
|
|
Insertion
|
extra base is added to your sequence (FRAME SHIFT MUT)
|
|
Deletion
|
one base is removed (FRAME SHIFT MUT)
