Gene
Gene = section of genetic material that codes for a protein
Each gene has a locus in chromatid
The corresponding genes in both chromatids are called alleles
Abnormal number of chromosomes
Euploid
Abnormal number of chromosomes
Euploid = normal number for cell
Abnormal number of chromosomes
Diploid
Abnormal number of chromosomes
Diploid = entire extra set of chromosomes
Abnormal number of chromosomes
Triploid
Abnormal number of chromosomes
Triploid = two entire extra sets of chromosomes
Abnormal number of chromosomes
Aneuploid
Abnormal number of chromosomes
Aneuploid = more or less of a few chromosomes, but not entire set
Abnormal number of chromosomes
Non-disjunction
Non-disjunction = failure of pair of chromosomes to separate during division.
Trisomy = 3 of any chromosome
Monosomy = only one of a pair of chromosomes
Abnormal structure of chromosomes
Deletion
Abnormal structure of chromosomes
Deletion = loss of a portion of a
chromosome
Abnormal structure of chromosomes
Translocation
Abnormal structure of chromosomes
Translocation = parts of two
different paired chromosomes
are exchanged
Abnormal structure of chromosomes
Inversion
Abnormal structure of chromosomes
Inversion = part of a
chromosome is turned around
Autosomal dominant
Autosomal dominant
Inheritance of a single copy of a defective gene found on a non-sex chromosome (remember, we each have two copies of each gene, one from each parent).

The single defective copy is sufficient to over-ride the normal functioning copy, resulting in abnormal protein functioning
or expression.
Penetrance
Penetrance – number of offspring
affected with characteristc phenotype
Expressivity
Expressivity – degree of manifestations of
condition in the phenotype
Autosomal recessive
Autosomal recessive
- A condition that requires both copies of the gene to be defective.
- If just a single copy is inherited, the single functional copy is sufficient to over-ride the defective copy and the individual is not affected by the disorder, but is rather a carrier of the condition
X-linked inheritance (Males)
X-linked inheritance (Males)
-Disorder in which the defective gene lies on the X (sex) chromosome.
-X-linked disorders are most common in males as there is no second X chromosome carrying the normal copy to compensate. In
males therefore a recessive gene can cause a genetic disorder
X-linked inheritance (Females)
X-linked inheritance (Females)
- Females are less likely to be affected as they have the non-affected X chromosome as
well.
- However, as only one X chromosome is active in each female cell at a time
(one is switched off due to a process called Lyonisation), patches of affected tissue or organs can occur in females.
-Mosaic concept.
