In our previous study we showed that the inheritance of pronounced forms of idiopathic scoliosis was described by an autosomal-dominant major gene model assuming incomplete sex- and age-dependent penetrance. In the present study a search for the major gene was carried out by means of testing candidate genes. The aggrecan gene with known polymorphism of the number of tandem repeats in exon G3 was considered to be one of these candidate genes. Various alleles of this gene provide attachment of different number of chondroitin sulfate chains to a proteoglycan core protein, thereby changing functional properties of cartilage. Using the TDT analysis of 33 unrelated families consisting of a proband and his/her parents, we examined the existence of associations between the aggrecan alleles and the disease. Among nine alleles identified, three alleles with tandem repeats numbers of 25, 26, and 27 prevailed. We did not reveal preferable transmission of any of these alleles to the proband (TDT-statistics for different alleles varied from 0 to 0.71). There was also no correlation between the number of tandem repeats and the disease severity. Thus, either the polymorphism of the number of tandem repeats is not the direct reason for development of idiopathic scoliosis in the families tested, or its effect is too low to be detected using the samples examined. 相似文献

The mode of inheritance of HLA-associated susceptibility to insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus was investigated by the antigen genotype frequency among patients method in a white Caucasian population and a North Indian Asian population. DR genotypes were determined by DRB/DQB RFLP analysis. In white Caucasians, simple recessive and simple additive inheritance of a single HLA-associated disease susceptibility allele were rejected (P less than .025 and P less than 10(-6), respectively). The data were compatible with a three-allele model of disease susceptibility. In North Indian Asians, simple additive inheritance was rejected (P less than 10(-6)). The observed genotype frequencies were compatible with a single DR3-associated disease susceptibility allele which is inherited recessively. These data show that study of DR genotypes in populations of different ethnic origins may further the understanding of inherited susceptibility to insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus is positively associated with HLA-DR4 and HLA-DR9 in Japanese populations. It was proposed that susceptibility to the disease is determined by a single HLA allele associated with both DR4 and DR9. DR genotypes in a Japanese population with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus were determined by DRB/DQB RFLP analysis. A single disease-susceptibility-allele model was tested by the antigen-genotype-frequency-among-patients method. Recessive and additive inheritance of a single susceptibility allele were rejected. The DR9-associated disease-susceptibility allele in Japanese subjects is distinct from both the DR3- and DR4-associated susceptibility alleles in white Caucasians. The data suggest further complexity in the inheritance of HLA-associated susceptibility to insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. 相似文献

To explore the genetic architecture of distyly in Turnera spp., we determined the inheritance and compatibility behaviour of two spontaneous homostyled mutants. A long-homostyled mutant shoot arose on an otherwise short-styled plant that was an artificial hybrid (Turnera subulata x T. krapovickasii) between two diploid distylous species. The mutation appears to be an allele, SH, of the distyly locus with the dominance relationships, S>SH>s, where S confers the short-styled phenotype, SH confers homostyly in SHSH and SHs genotypes, and ss genotypes are long-styled. Aberrant segregation ratios were observed among some crosses and might be the result of pollen competition. Compatibility relationships are consistent with the hypothesis that a gene complex determines distyly. Infrequently, revertant short-styled flowers have appeared on cuttings of the T. subulata x T. krapovickasii mutant and on occasion, short-styled progeny have appeared in crosses where none were expected. A second mutant homostyle was discovered in autotetraploid T. scabra. The mutation is inherited as above, however, tetrasomic inheritance occurs at the locus. This homostyled mutant carries two copies of the SH allele and has the duplex genotype SHSHss. Compatibility relationships were as observed above. The occurrence of homostyled mutants is consistent with the hypothesis that a linked gene complex underlies the inheritance of distyly in Turnera but we cannot discount the hypothesis that an allelic series is responsible. 相似文献

It has been proposed that gluten sensitive enteropathy (GSE) results from the interaction of two loci: one locus linked to HLA and associated with dominant inheritance, and the other, a non-HLA-linked GSE-associated B-cell alloantigen, exhibiting recessive inheritance. We have shown in previous analyses that a two-locus, dominant-recessive model is less compatible with the existing population prevalence and observed familial segregation data than is a recessive-recessive two-locus model. Here we present additional analyses of reported population and familial HLA data that support the recessive mode of inheritance for the HLA-linked disease locus. Reported data from HLA typing of affected sib pairs, the association of GSE with DR3 and DR7 in different populations, and the proportions of different HLA phenotypes and genotypes were compared with expected data derived by three different methods. The HLA data analyses consistently reject a dominant mode of inheritance for the presumed HLA-linked disease allele but do not reject a recessive model. The affected sib-pair data also support a recessive model. These analyses are consistent with our previous prediction that the HLA-"linked" disease allele in GSE is recessive inherited. 相似文献

A familial form of lupus, termed exfoliative cutaneous lupus erythematosus (ECLE) has been recognized for decades in German
shorthaired pointer dogs (GSP). Previous studies were suggestive of autosomal recessive inheritance. The disease presents
as a severe dermatitis with age of onset between 16 and 40 weeks, and mirrors cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) in humans.
Lameness and, in advanced cases, renal disease may be present. Most affected dogs are euthanized before reaching the age of
4 years. The diagnosis is made by clinical observations and microscopic examination of skin biopsies. In humans, many different
forms of CLE exist and various genes and chromosomal locations have been implicated. The large number of potential candidate
loci combined with often weak association prevented in depth screening of the dog population thus far. During the course of
our studies, we developed a colony of dogs with ECLE as a model for human CLE and the genetic analysis of these dogs confirmed
the autosomal recessive mode of inheritance of CLE in GSPs. Using canine patient material, we performed a genome-wide association
study (GWAS) to identify the genomic region harboring the gene involved in the development of the disease in GSPs. We identified
a SNP allele on canine chromosome 18 that segregated with the disease in the 267 dogs tested. The data generated should allow
identification of the mutant gene responsible for this form of cutaneous lupus erythematosus in dogs and assist in the understanding
of the development of similar disease in humans. 相似文献

In addition to the nine well-defined monogenic forms of Parkinson’s disease, there are numerous known genetic risk and protective variants that modulate the risk of Parkinson’s disease. Among the monogenic forms, three (PARK1/PARK4, PARK8, PARK17) follow an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance, whereas six are recessively inherited (PARK2, PARK6, PARK7, PARK9, PARK14, PARK15). Six forms have clinical characteristics very similar to those of idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PARK1/PARK4, PARK2, PARK6, PARK7, PARK8, PARK17). Among the latter forms, late-onset PARK8 with mutations in the LRRK2 gene and early-onset PARK2 caused by mutations in the Parkin gene are by far the most common. Both the monogenic and the idiopathic forms of Parkinson’s disease share common pathophysiological mechanisms involving oxidative modification, impaired protein degradation and mitochondrial dysfunction. Therefore, monogenic forms of Parkinson’s disease can serve as human model diseases for the idiopathic forms. 相似文献

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), commonly known as "brittle bone disease", is a dominant autosomal disorder characterized by bone fragility and abnormalities of connective tissue. Biochemical and molecular genetic studies have shown that the vast majority of affected individuals have mutations in either the COL1A1 or COL1A2 genes that encode the chains of type I procollagen. OI is associated with a wide spectrum of phenotypes varying from mild to severe and lethal conditions. The mild forms are usually caused by mutations which inactivate one allele of COL1A1 gene and result in a reduced amount of normal type I collagen, while the severe and lethal forms result from dominant negative mutations in COL1A1 or COL1A2 which produce structural defects in the collagen molecule. The most common mutations are substitutions of glycine residues, which are crucial to formation and function of the collagen triple helix, by larger amino acids. Although type I collagen is the major structural protein of both bone and skin, the mutations in type I collagen genes cause a bone disease. Some reports showed that the mutant collagen can be expressed differently in bone and in skin. Since most mutations identified in OI are dominant negative, the gene therapy requires a fundamentally different approach from that used for genetic-recessive disorders. The antisense therapy, by reducing the expression of mutant genes, is able to change a structural mutation into a null mutation, and thus convert severe forms of the disease into mild OI type I. 相似文献

FPM. de-Villena C. Slamka M. Fonseca A. K. Naumova J. Paquette P. Pannunzio M. Smith A. Verner K. Morgan C. Sapienza 《Genetics》1996,142(4):1299-1304
We determined the genotypes of >200 offspring that are survivors of matings between female reciprocal F(1) hybrids (between the DDK and C57BL/6J inbred mouse strains) and C57BL/6J males at markers linked to the Ovum mutant (Om) locus on chromosome 11. In contrast to the expectations of our previous genetic model to explain the ``DDK syndrome,' the genotypes of these offspring do not reflect preferential survival of individuals that receive C57BL/6J alleles from the F(1) females in the region of chromosome 11 to which the Om locus has been mapped. In fact, we observe significant transmission-ratio distortion in favor of DDK alleles in this region. These results are also in contrast to the expectations of Wakasugi's genetic model for the inheritance of Om, in which he proposed equal transmission of DDK and non-DDK alleles from F(1) females. We propose that the results of these experiments may be explained by reduced expression of the maternal DDK Om allele or expression of the maternal DDK Om allele in only a portion of the ova of F(1) females. 相似文献

90 pedigrees (283 individuals) were used for statistical and segregation analysis of scoliosis inheritance. It was shown that inheritance of scoliosis may be described by the monogenic model with incomplete penetrance of heterozygotes, the latter being lower in men than in women. The monogenic model allows to perform correct predictions, the probability of incorrect prediction being about 0.1. 相似文献

Phenotypes of several heritable disorders including forms of hearing loss, myelin diseases, hypomagnesemia, and cataracts are linked to missense mutations in single alleles encoding membrane proteins having four transmembrane spans. In some cases, the mutant proteins exhibit dominant negative or gain-of-function behavior whereby heterozygous coexpression of mutant and wild-type genes leads to more serious pathology than is the case for individuals in which only a single wild-type allele is expressed. An example is found in the relationship of peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) to Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMTD) type 1A. A number of disease-linked PMP22 mutants fail to undergo normal trafficking beyond the endoplasmic reticulum or intermediate compartment to reach the cell surface. Moreover, recent evidence suggests that pathology resulting from this mistrafficking-based loss of function may also be augmented by the ability of some mutants to disrupt normal trafficking of the product of the wild-type PMP22 allele. The basis for this phenomenon appears to be the heterodimerization of trafficking-incompetent mutants with wild-type PMP22, such that both the wild-type protein and the mutant forms are retained early in the secretory pathway. The full cellular and structural biological details of these observations remain to be elucidated. However, the model suggested by the existing data regarding the relationship of PMP22 to CMTD may be useful to explain phenotypes of several other diseases involving other tetraspan membrane proteins and to facilitate predictions regarding previously undetected disease-protein linkages. 相似文献

Linkage disequilibrium and CF allele segregation analysis in cystic fibrosis families in Northern Ireland 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

Summary Linkage disequilibrium and cystic fibrosis (CF) allele segregation were analysed in 46 CF families in Northern Ireland. The smaller (+) allele of the KM19/PstI polymorphism and the larger (-) allele of the XV-2c/TaqI polymorphism showed marked linkage disequilibrium with CF. This information can be used to alter the risk of an individual being a carrier of CF away from the expected population risk of 1 in 20. The high-risk genotypes K+K+ or X-X- have a risk of 1 in 10 and the low-risk genotypes K-K- or X+X+ have a risk of 1 in 50. A study of the segregation of CF alleles in the 46 families, using KM19 and Xv-2c, showed preferential inheritance of the paternal (79%), as opposed to the maternal (21%), CF allele by the heterozygous carriers. A mechanism that might explain this observation is discussed. 相似文献

The affected sib-pair method has been used to investigate the mode of inheritance, and to estimate the "disease" allele frequency, for a number of HLA-associated diseases. One of the assumptions of the original sib-pair method is that the disease confers no selective disadvantage on affected individuals. This is obviously not the situation for most diseases. We have determined the expected HLA haplotype-sharing distribution among affected sib-pairs when selection against individuals with the disease is taken into account. We have shown that if the mode of inheritance of the selectively disadvantageous disease is recessive or additive, the original affected sib-pair analysis, ignoring selection, still estimates the true mode of inheritance, but usually yields an underestimate of the "disease" allele frequency. For intermediate and dominant models of disease predisposition, both the estimates of the degree of penetrance of the "disease" genotypes, and the "disease" allele frequency, are altered if selection is ignored in the analysis. Similarly, allowing for recombination between the "disease" locus and the HLA region does not affect the determination of the mode of inheritance of the disease if it is recessive or additive; in other cases, however, the estimate of the mode of inheritance is affected. The "disease" allele frequency is overestimated when nonzero recombination is ignored for all the modes of inheritance that have been studied. 相似文献

Bardet-Biedl syndrome is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous disorder caused by mutations in at least seven loci (BBS1-7), five of which are cloned (BBS1, BBS2, BBS4, BBS6, and BBS7). Genetic and mutational analyses have indicated that, in some families, a combination of three mutant alleles at two loci (triallelic inheritance) is necessary for pathogenesis. To date, four of the five known BBS loci have been implicated in this mode of oligogenic disease transmission. We present a comprehensive analysis of the spectrum, distribution, and involvement in non-Mendelian trait transmission of mutant alleles in BBS1, the most common BBS locus. Analyses of 259 independent families segregating a BBS phenotype indicate that BBS1 participates in complex inheritance and that, in different families, mutations in BBS1 can interact genetically with mutations at each of the other known BBS genes, as well as at unknown loci, to cause the phenotype. Consistent with this model, we identified homozygous M390R alleles, the most frequent BBS1 mutation, in asymptomatic individuals in two families. Moreover, our statistical analyses indicate that the prevalence of the M390R allele in the general population is consistent with an oligogenic rather than a recessive model of disease transmission. The distribution of BBS oligogenic alleles also indicates that all BBS loci might interact genetically with each other, but some genes, especially BBS2 and BBS6, are more likely to participate in triallelic inheritance, suggesting a variable ability of the BBS proteins to interact genetically with each other. 相似文献

Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) is a monogenic inherited disorder of the heme biosynthetic pathway due to ferrochelatase (FC) deficiency. EPP is generally considered to be transmitted as an autosomal dominant disease with incomplete penetrance, although autosomal recessive inheritance has been documented at the enzymatic and molecular level in some families. In the dominant form of EPP, statistical analysis of FC activities documented a significantly lower mean value in patients than in asymptomatic carriers, suggesting a more complex mode of inheritance. To account for these findings, we tested a multiallelic inheritance model in one EPP family in which the enzymatic data were compatible with this hypothesis. In this EPP family, the specific FC gene mutation was an exon 10 skipping (delta Ex10), resulting from a G deletion within the exon 10 consensus splice donor site. The segregation of all FC alleles within the family was followed using the delta Ex10 mutation and a new intragenic dimorphism (1520 C/T). mRNAs transcribed from each FC allele were then subjected to relative quantification by a primer extension assay and to absolute quantification by a ribonuclease protection assay. The data support the hypothesis that in this family the EPP phenotype results from the coinheritance of a low output normal FC allele and a mutant delta Ex10 allele. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the inheritance of powdery mildew disease and to tag it with a DNA marker to utilize for the marker-assisted selection (MAS) breeding program. The powdery mildew resistant genotype Fallon(er) and susceptible genotype 11760-3ER were selected from 177 genotypes by heavy infestation of germplasm with Erysiphe pisi through artificial inoculation. The F1 plants of the cross Fallon/11760-3 indicated the dominance of the susceptible allele, while F2 plants segregated in 3 : 1 ratio (susceptible : resistant) that fit for goodness of fitness by chi2 (P > 0.07), indicating monogenic recessive inheritance for powdery mildew resistance in Pisum sativum. A novel RAPD marker OPB18 (5'-CCACAGCAGT-3') was linked to the er-1 gene with 83% probability with a LOD score of 4.13, and was located at a distance of 11.2 cM from the er-1 gene. 相似文献
