Ploidy
|
The number of sets of chromosomes in a cell
|
|
Euploidy
|
Havingan equal number of each chromosome
|
|
Aneuploidy
|
having an unequal number of each chromosome
DISRUPTION IN GENE BALANCE CAUSES GENEDOSAGE AFFECTS THAT PRODUCE INCORRECT RATIOS OF INTERACTING PROTEINS ,IMPAIRING NORMAL PHYSIOLOGY. |
|
Aberrant euploidy
|
loss or duplication of whole chromosome seto 2n is normal, n =monoploid, 3n,4n=Polyploidy
|
|
Monoploidy
|
Exposes recessive alleles masked in diploid if does develop it will be sterile becausemeiotic chromosomal pairing fails
|
|
Autopolyploid
|
chromosome sets originates from one species Triploids are typically sterile due to problemswith chromosomal pairings during meiosis Unequal amount of chromosomes to pair Tetraploids : produce viable gametesú Also have variation in chromosomal pairingsmeiosis
|
|
Allopolyploid
|
chromosome sets originate from two or moredifferent species
|
|
Sex chromosomes:
|
a peculiar exception to the detrimental effects
|
|
Non-disjunction
|
when disjunction fails. Homologous chromosomesor sister chromatids don’t properly segregate into daughter cells causesdisjunction
|
|
Gene Balance
|
should be ratio 1:1§ Proper protein interactions depend on having thecorrect ration of genes products, disrupts physiology.
|
|
Monosomic
|
Affects very negative any deletirous recessivealleles are revealed- can’t be hidden by a dominant allele
|
|
Psuedodominance
|
Recessive alleles appear to be dominant becausecell has only one copy
|
|
Trisomic (2n+1
|
Additional chromosome often causes death orsevere abnormali
|
|
Deletion:
|
loss of chromosome segment
o Problems may arise from dosage affectsExposure of deleterious recessive mutations |
|
Duplication
|
doubling of a chromosomal segment
Tandem: extra copy is located adjacent tooriginal copy ,Inspectional: extra copy located elsewhere ingenome |
|
Inversion
|
· Ordering of segment is reversed relative toremainder of chromosome
o Paracentric: Inversion does not containcentromereo Pericentric:: Inversion includes centromere |
|
Translocation:
|
· Chromosomal segments moves between differentchromosomes
|
|
· Balance VS Unbalance
|
o Balance: rearrangement do not disrupt genebalanceo Unbalance: alter gene balance, cause dosageeffects
