1 gene has >1 effect on an individual's phenotype
pleiotrophy
cells in the body have different genetic makeup
mosaicism
presence of both normal & mutated mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)→ l/t variable expression in mitochondrial inherited dzs
heteroplasmy
offspring gets 2 copies of a chromosome from 1 parent & no copies from the other
uniparental disomy
equation for disease prevalence
p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1

2pq = heterozygote prev
p^2 & q^2 = homozygotes
equation for allele prevalence
p + q = 1
prevalence of an XLR dz in males
q (where q^2 = prev of homozyg recessive)
prev of XLR dz in females
q^2 (where q^2 also = prev of homozyg)
prader-willi has a deletion of the maternal or paternal allele? what chromosome?

- chromosome 15
- maternal allele deleted

(the adult form)
bilateral, massive enlargement of kidneys d/t multiple large cysts
AD-PKD
(adult form)
flank pain, hematuria, HTN, progressive renal failure, autosomal dominant
AD-PKD
(adult form)
other dzs/probs a/w AD-PKD
