Consider the cross: Ee ff Gg HH x Ee Ff gg HH (assume these are designations for genes that are inherited in a Mendelian fashion). What is the probability that a single offspring from this cross would be genotypically: ee Ff Gg HH or Ee ff gg HH?

The EGLN1 gene helps regulate body oxygen levels. One allele His dominant over h, and helps increase fitness at high altitude(where oxygen is low). In a study of families in Tibet, researchersfound 422 HH individuals, 377 Hh, and 201 hh individuals. The studyshowed that infant mortality was lower in Hh individuals than hh,and lowest in HH individuals.
Is the Tibetan population in Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium at this H/hgene?

It is becoming apparent that key pathways used in development,like Hedgehog, can become involved in tumorogenesis if they arereactivated in adult tissues through mutation or other mechanisms.Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) can act in autocrine fashion causing the cellsthat produce it to grow. Normally autocrine signalling by Shh isrequired for maintenance of certain neuronal progenitor cells andhematopoietic stem cells. In fact, Shh inhibitors can reversemeduloblastomas and leukemias, which are the cancerous forms of thecells it normally regulates. Autocrine

In humans, the Shh pathway can be summarized in the followingway:

Hh --> | PTCH1 --> | SMOH --> GLI --> Hh targetgenes

Hh = hedgehog, PTCH1 = patched, SMOH = smoothened, GLI =transcription factor

1) Propose three types of mutations in components of thispathway that might lead to cancer

2) Based on hedgehog signalling, how would you propose to treatcancer arising from Shh signalling using chemotherapy

In Labradors, two genes interact to determine coat color. BB homozygotes and Bb heterozygotes are black, while bb homozygotes are brown. The second gene, E, is epistatic over the B gene, and ee homozygotes always have yellow fur. If you crossed a brown Labrador (bb Ee genotype) with a yellow Labrador (Bb ee genotype), what would be the expected phenotypic ratios of their progeny? Assume that the two genes are unlinked.
