Moelcular genetics and genetic Bolstering

  1. Southern blotting
    • Dna is cleaved by enzyme
    • gel electrophoresis
    • then put filter 
    • radioactive complement anneal to complementary probe on fiter
    • complementary probes are visualized when filter is exposed to flm
  2. Northern Bltting
    similary to souther but instead of DNA RNA is used
  3. when is northern blotting useful
    studying mrna that reflect gene expression
  4. Southwestern blotting
    Identifying DNA-binding protein, using labeled double stranded DNA probes
  5. Western blotting
    protein in separate on gel electro, then transferred to a membrane where specific protein will bind to labeled antibodies it is exposed to
  6. menumonic is remeber the 3 main blotting
    SNow DRop
  7. Autosomal dominant
    • genotype: Aa
    • usually, half the children are affected if one parent is autosomal dominant
    • due to defects in structural genes
  8. what is a proband
    particular person or subect beind studies or reported on
  9. probability of being a carrier if Autosomal Recessive affected sibling
    unaffected individual with affected sibling has 2/3 probability of being a carrier
  10. with autosomal recessive if both parents are heterozygous then
    • 1/4 of children will not be affect
    • 1/2 will be carriers 
    • 1/4 will be homozygous( affected)
  11. what is the possibility of a male being affected by a a X-linked recessive disease if inherited from mother?
    50%
  12. is there male to male transmission of x-linked recessive disease?
    no
  13. when to comes to generation how does X-linked recessive act?
    they usually skip generations
  14. X-linked dominant transmission pattern
    • can be transmitted from both parent
    • mothers transmit to 50% of daughters and sone
    • fathers transmit to all daughters and not to sons
  15. examples of x-linked dominant diseases?
    • fragile x
    • alport syndrome

    • incuved 5th finger
  17. Mitochondrial inheritance pattern
    • transmitted only through the mother
    • all offspring can show signs od disease
  18. how are mitochondrial diseases throughout generations
    variable expression in pop and within family due to heteroplasmy
  19. heteroplasmy and its clinical significance
    • present in mitochondrial diseases
    • this term means that there is more than on type of mtDna present within a cell or a indivudual.
    • the more neatively mutated mtDna the more sever
  20. Examples of autosomal dominant disease(4)
    • Huntinton's disease
    • Marfan's syndrome
    • Achondroplasia
    • myotonic muscular dystrophy
  21. Examples of autosomal recessive disease(6)
    • cystic fibrosis 
    • lycogen storage diseases
    • kartagener syndrome
    • sickle cell anemia 
    • thalassemias
    • wilson disease
  22. cystic fibrosis mode of inheritance
    autosomal recessive
  23. defected gene in cystic fibrosis
    • CFTR gene on chromosome 7 
    • defect in Phe508
  24. X linked disorder mneumonic
    Obviously females will often give her boys her x-linked disorders
  25. X linked disorder mneumonic meaning
    • Wiskott-Aldrich synd
    • Hunter's syndrome
    • Hemophilia A & B
    • Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy
    • Bruton agammaglobulinemia
    • G6PD ( Glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase  defeciency
    • Orinthine transcarbamylase deficency 
    • Fabry disease 
    • Ocular albinism
  26. complication of cystic fibrosis
    recurrent pulmonary infections, alergic pulmonary aspergillosis,chronic bronchitis and bronchiectasis, liver disease,
  27. what is the reason behind Duchenne muscular dystrophy
    • it is x-linked recessive  due to frameshift delation or nonsense mutation
    • DDD
    • duchenne- deleted dystrophin gene ( DMD) 
    • progressive myofiber damae
  28. becker muscular dystrophy
    • typically due to non framshet deletion in dystropin gene
    • Beckers is better
  29. edwards syndrome
    • eight and edwards start with the same letter
    • trisomy 18
  30. what are the finding of edwards syndrome
    • prince edward
    • prominent occiput
    • Rocket-bottom feet
    • intellectual disability
    • Non disjunction 
    • Clenched fist with overlapping fingers
    • Low set ears 
    • small jaw
    • conge. heart dis
  31. when do infants with edwards syndrome usually die?
    by age 1
  32. incidence of edwards syndrome
    1:8000
  33. patau syndrome findings
    • cleft liP Palate 
    • holoProscencephaly
    • cutis aPlasia
    • Polydactyly
