Congenital pulmonary alveolar proteinosis is a rare lung disease in humans. The disease is caused by a recessive mutation in the gene CSF2RA. CSF2RA is located within a pseudoautosomal region of the X and Y chromosomes. The normal allele is notated as Cnorm, and the mutant allele is notated as Cmut. Suppose that a woman with Cnorm on both X chromosomes (XCnormyCnorm) has children with a man with Cmut on the X chromosome and Cnorm on the Y chromosome (XCmut yCnorm.

Cat fur coat color genetics is interesting. Orange fur is dominant (''B'') to black fur (''b'') and piebald, which is white spotting, is dominant (''S'') to non-white-spotted (''s''). Both of those genes are located on the X chromosome. In addition, in cats, somatic cells exhibit X-inactivation randomly, which explains why there are tortoiseshell cats (when heterozygous, have orange and black spots) as well as calico cats (orange and black but also with white spots). An orange and white spotted male is mated with a tortoiseshell female. State the genotype of the male and the female.
In 1952, an article in the British Medical Journalreported interesting differences in the behavior ofblood plasma obtained from several people who suffered from X-linked recessive hemophilia. Whenmixed together, the cell-free blood plasma from certain combinations of individuals could form clots inthe test tube. For example, the following table showswhether clots could form (+) or not (−) in variouscombinations of plasma from four people withhemophilia:1 and 1 − 2 and 3 +1 and 2 − 2 and 4 +1 and 3 + 3 and 3 −1 and 4 + 3 and 4 −2 and 2 − 4 and 4 −What do these data tell you about the inheritance ofhemophilia in these individuals? Do these data allowyou to exclude any models for the biochemical pathway governing blood clotting?
Males of many diploid species (like us) have X and Y sex chromosomes. They are hemizygous for most X- linked genes. Thus, males express most X-linked alleles, whether they are dominant or recessive in females. In the fruit fly Drosophila, it is common to achieve the equivalent of a test cross of X-linked genes in females by assessing the readily observed phenotypes of their male progeny. Since males do not receive X-linked genes from their father, sires of these crosses can be normal or wild-type flies. In fly genetics, it is conventional to name a gene after the mutant phenotype that enabled its discovery. Your challenge is to establish gene order and map distances between three X-linked genes in Drosophila. Each gene is represented by recessive mutant alleles that express rather distinctive phenotypes relative to their dominant wild-type alternative alleles. Flies expressing fruitless (f) are bisexual, lush (1) have a heightened responses to ethanol, and ken&barbie (kb) lack external…

Lid (Little imaginal discs) is a gene located on chromosome 2L and FRT40A refers to an FRT sequence inserted at the 40A (cytological location). Tubulin (Tub) refers to a promoter that can drive target gene expression in all the cell types. Gal80 is an inhibitor of Gal4 that blocks Gal4’s ability to activate transcription. Determine whether the following statements are true or false for flies with the following genotype: y w HsFLP; lid, FRT40A / P{Tub-Gal80}, FRT40A; P{Tub-Gal4} P{UAS-GFP} / + A. The fly will express Gal4, which will activate GFP in all the somatic cells without heat shock. B. After heat shock, FLP recombinase will be induced, which will induce mitotic recombination at FRT40A. However, lid mutant clone will be not induced because it is located closer to the centromere than FRT40A. C. After heat shock, FLP recombinase will be induced, which will induce mitotic recombination at FRT40A, resulting in the generation of homozygous lid mutant clones and twin spots that are…
Cystic fibrosis is a recessive disease that affects many parts of the body, but primarily presents itself through difficulty breathing and through cysts in the pancreas. It is caused by mutations in the gene CFTR. What chromosome is the gene on?
X-linked Recessive Inheritance A gene is described as X-linked when it occurs on the X chromosome and not the Y. Our convention is to indicate X-linkage by attaching the appropriate gene symbol as a superscript on the letter X. Commonly, the wild-type (+) allele is indicated with only a "+" to avoid having to type a superscript on a superscript. For example, a female that is heterozygous and carrying a recessive mutant allele is indicated as X+Xm. Note the convenience of the shorthand + for m+ in this situation. A mutant male has the genotype XmY. When working with X-linked inheritance, always include the X and Y chromosomes in the descriptions of genotypes, and include the sex (male or female) in the descriptions of the phenotypes (e.g., mutant male, wild-type female, etc.). Here are the genotypes and associated phenotypes for X-linked recessive inheritance: X+X+ Wild-type female X+Xm Wild-type female xmxm Mutant female X+Y xmy Wild-type male Mutant male
