BIOL 439 Lecture 14: Final Exam Studying – Biol 439
Document Summary
The first four of these (and others not known) had positive lod scores. Next we move from the study above (hall et al. , 1990), where linkage to a region was discovered, to the information below that came after the gene had been characterized (miki et al. , 1994). Thus the pedigrees discussed in miki et al. (below) might not be the same as those above. However, there is no harm in us thinking of them as being the same families (i. e. , to understand the point about different alleles, at one msat locus, being linked to different mutations at the. Interestingly, in one family, no mutations were seen, but genomic dna showed heterozygosity (cid:894)e. g. , i(cid:374) (cid:374)o(cid:374)s(cid:455)(cid:374)o(cid:374)(cid:455)(cid:373)osu sites(cid:895) a(cid:374)d (cid:272)dna did (cid:374)ot. Thus it appea(cid:396)s that o(cid:374)e allele (cid:449)as(cid:374)(cid:859)t expressed. I have been using the terms family and pedigree as if they are the same thing. I suppose that"s imprecise, because a pedigree, one could argue, has many families.
