chromosome: Encyclopedia - Dominance relationship

In genetics, dominance relationships control whether an offspring will inherit a characteristic from the father, the mother, or some blend of both. More technically, they control the ways genes interact to express themselves as phenotypes in a diploid or polyploid individual. There are three kinds of dominance relationships: Simple dominance Incomplete dominance Co-dominance Dominance relationship - Chromosome redundancy. The dominant/recessive relationship is ma ...

chromosome: Encyclopedia - Cytogenetics

Cytogenetics is the study of the structure of chromosome material. It includes routine analysis of G-Banded chromosomes, other cytogenetic banding techniques, as well as molecular cytogenetics such as fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) and comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). Cytogenetics - History. Cytogenetics - Early years. Barbara McClintock began her career as a maize cytogeneticist. In 1931 McClintock and Harriet Creighton demonstrated that cytological recombinat ...

chromosome: Encyclopedia II - Yersinia pestis - Pathogenicity and immunity

Pathogenicity is due to two antiphagocytic antigens, named F1 and VW, both required for virulence. They are produced by the bacterium at the temperature of 37°C, so this explains why insects, such as the flea, harbor non-virulent bacteria. Furthermore, Y. pestis survive and produce F1 and VW antigens within blood cells such as monocytes, but not in polymorphonuclear neutrophils. Natural or induced immunity is achieved by the production of specific opsonic antibodies aga ...

chromosome: Encyclopedia II - History of genetics - Mendel

In 1865 an Austrian monk Gregor Mendel first traced inheritance patterns of certain traits in pea plants and showed that they obeyed simple statistical rules. Although not all features show these patterns of Mendelian inheritance, his work acted as a proof that application of statistics to inheritance could be highly useful. Since that time many more complex forms of inheritance have been demonstrated. From his statistical analysis Mendel defined a concept that he described as an allele, which was the fundamental unit of heredi ...

chromosome: Encyclopedia II - Jurassic Park - Changes from the Novel

A fair number of differences exist between the book and the movie. Some of these differences are the subtraction of characters, an altered timeline, and in addition the characters themselves are altered from their novel counterparts. Ian Malcolm, as he appears in the book, is a rather sardonic but brilliant man who couldn't truly appreciate the accuracy of his failure theories because he is badly injured and immobilized by a dinosaur attack. Malcolm's vitriolic monologues are toned down for the film. Grant's relationship with Ellie Sattler in the book was purely professio ...

chromosome: Encyclopedia II - Junk DNA - Evolutionary conservation of junk DNA

Comparative genomics is a promising direction in studying the function of junk DNA. Biologically functional sequences, as the theory goes, tend to undergo mutation at a slower rate than nonfunctional sequence, since mutations in these sequences are likely to be selected against. For example, the coding sequence of a human protein-coding gene is typically about 80% identical to its mouse ortholog, while their genomes as a whole are much more widely diverged. Analyzing the patterns of conservation between the genomes of different species can s ...

chromosome: Encyclopedia II - Human genome - Features

Human genome - Chromosomes. There are 24 distinct human chromosomes, numbers 1-22 plus the sex-determining X and Y chromosomes. Chromosomes 1-22 are numbered roughly in order of decreasing size. Each somatic cell in a healthy individual has one copy of chromosomes 1-22 from each parent, plus an X chromosome from the mother, and either an X or Y chromosome from the father, for a total of 46.

chromosome: Encyclopedia II - Lactate dehydrogenase - Enzyme isoforms

Every lactate dehydrogenase molecule consists of four subunits, where each subunit is either H or M (based on their electrophoretic properties.) There are, therefore, five LDH isotypes: LDH-1 (4H) - in the heart LDH-2 (3H1M) - in the reticuloendothelial system LDH-3 (2H2M) - in the lungs LDH-4 (1H3M) - in the kidneys LDH-5 (4M) - in the liver and striated muscle Usually LDH-2 is the predominant form in the serum.

chromosome: Encyclopedia II - Lactose intolerance - Managing lactose intolerance

There is no "treatment" or "cure" to lactose intolerance, per se. There have been some cases where the intolerance has somehow diminished with time; this has not been studied scientifically, however, and whether it is a case of desensitization remains to be seen. It should be remembered that lactose intolerance is not an all or nothing condition: the reduction in lactase production and hence amount of lactose that can be tolerated varies from person to person, and may change with age, although almost always a change is for the negative. The ...

chromosome: Encyclopedia II - Luteinizing hormone - Activity

In both males and females, LH stimulates the production of sex steroids from the gonads. Leydig cells in male testes respond to LH by producing testosterone, while theca cells in the female ovary respond to LH by producing androgens and estrogens. In females, a LH surge about halfway through the menstrual cycle triggers the onset of ovulation. LH also induces the ovulated follicle to become a corpus luteum, which then secretes progesterone. LH levels are normally low durin ...

chromosome: Encyclopedia II - Histone - Structure

The nucleosome core is formed of two H2A-H2B dimers and two H3-H4 dimers, forming two nearly symmetrical halves by tertiary structure (C2 symmetry; one macromolecule is the mirror image of the other). The H2A-H2B and H3-H4 dimers themselves also show pseudodyad symmetry. The 4 'core' histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4) are relatively similar in structure and are highly conserved through evolution, all featuring a 'helix turn helix turn helix' motif (which allows the easy dimerisation). They also share the feature of long 'tails' on one end of the amino acid structure - this being the location of post-tran ...

The observation by Thomas Hunt Morgan that the amount of crossing over between linked genes differs led to the idea that crossover frequency might indicate the distance separating genes on the chromosome. Morgan's student Alfred Sturtevant developed the first genetic map, also called a linkage map. Sturtevant proposed that the greater the distance between linked genes, the greater the chance that non-sister chromatids would cross over in the region between the genes. By working out the number of recombinants it is possible to obtain a ...

HHT is a genetic disorder by definition. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Four forms have been described: HHT1: mutation of the endoglin gene (ninth chromosome). Endoglin is a receptor of TGFβ1 (transforming growth factor beta 1) and TGFβ3. It also interacts with zyxin and ZRP-1 with its intracellular domain, to control composition of focal adhesions and regulate organization of actin filaments. This form predisposes for pulmonary AVMs and early nosebleeds. HHT2: mutation in the alk1See also:

A genotype is distinct from a haplotype because an individual's genotype may not uniquely define that individual's haplotype. As an example, consider two loci, each with two possible alleles, the first locus being either A or a, the second locus being B or b. If the genotype of an individual was found to be AaBb, there are two possible sets of haplotypes, corresponding to which pairs happen to occur on the same chromosome: In this case, more information would be required to determine which particular set of haplotypes occur in the individu ...
