DNA & Heredity
Also known as...
Why you look like your mum
Genetics:
The science of heredity
• Transmission genetics
• Molecular genetics
• Evolutionary genetics
• Population genetics
• Quantitative genetics
DNA double-helix:
Two nucleotide
polymers wrapped
around each other
Chromosome condensing
from single DNA molecule
Chromosomes generally composed
hundreds of different genes
Genes: segments of DNA that control
protein production & traits
Examples: gene for red hair,
gene for enzyme lactase
1. Transcription
making mRNA
DNA serves as template
2. Translation
making protein
mRNA serves as template
Genes affect traits by regulating
protein synthesis
RNA indicates the amino acid sequence of a protein
• 3 base combinations
known as codons
• each codon “codes” for
a specific amino acid
The Genetic Code
RNA codes for amino acids
Ser = serine, Val = valine, etc.
sex chromosomes
Human karyotype

DNA & Heredity-I

Editor's Notes

  1. Many different kinds of genetics! Deals with the transmission (!) of traits or genes from generation to generation Example: red-green color blindness Deals with the structure and function of genes (gene = DNA sequence coding for RNA/protein) Population genetics deals with genetic exchange among populations (at coding and noncoding loci) Quantitative genetics deals with trait variation within and among populations (usually complex traits)
  2. DNA: 2 nucleotide polymers wrapped around each other in a “double-helix” RNA: a single strand of nucleotides Monomer = a nucleotide (consists of a phosphate, sugar and one of 4 nucleotide bases) Strands are held together by hydrogen bonding, Complementary base pairing=AT and CG These strands, of course, contain the information for protein production = GENES! And are packed up into chromosomes within the eukaryotic nucleus
  3. DNA is packed into chromosomes Note: chromosomes form only for cell division
  4. an important feature of the genetic code: nearly universal for all forms of life (prokaryotic & eukaryotic) e.g., the codon UCU codes for serine in you and bacteria also note code is redundant: more than one codon/amino acid BUT NOT AMBIGUOUS! Meaning that there are multiple codons for a given amino acid, but any given codon will never code for more than one aa Stop = signal to stop translation, formation of a polypeptide chain
  5. Chromosomes condense during cell division and can be ordered and counted = a karyotype. Within an individual and within a species, virtually all cells have same karyotype Here is human karyotype- 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes = pair of chromosomes with same sequence of genes, one of each pair from mom & other dad e.g., if gene for eye color is in a sp band on chromosome one, gene for eye color is in same band on other of pair of chromosome one = locus You can have different forms of the gene at these two locations however! = alleles one from Mom & other from Dad! We are diploid organisms because for every chromosome – we have a full set from each parent One pair isn’t entirely homologous = sex chromosomes (notice reduced Y), Remaining chromosomes are autosomes
