Transmission ratio distortion (TRD) is a deviation from the expected Mendelian 1:1 ratio of alleles transmitted from parents to offspring and may arise by different mechanisms. Earlier we described a grandparental-origin-dependent sex-of-offspring-specific TRD of maternal chromosome 12 alleles closely linked to an imprinted region and hypothesized that it resulted from imprint resetting errors in the maternal germline. Here, we report that the genotype of the parents for loss-of-function mutations in the Dnmt1 gene influences the transmission of grandparental chromosome 12 alleles. More specifically, maternal Dnmt1 mutations restore Mendelian transmission ratios of chromosome 12 alleles. Transmission of maternal alleles depends upon the presence of the Dnmt1 mutation in the mother rather than upon the Dnmt1 genotype of the offspring. Paternal transmission mirrors the maternal one: live-born offspring of wild-type fathers display 1:1 transmission ratios, whereas offspring of heterozygous Dnmt1 mutant fathers tend to inherit grandpaternal alleles. Analysis of allelic transmission in the homologous region of human chromosome 14q32 detected preferential transmission of alleles from the paternal grandfather to grandsons. Thus, parental Dnmt1 is a modifier of transmission of alleles at an unlinked chromosomal region and perhaps has a role in the genesis of TRD. 相似文献

The phenomenon of genomic imprinting describes the differential behavior of genes depending on their parental origin, and has been demonstrated in a few rare genetic disorders. In complex diseases, parent-of-origin effects have not been systematically studied, although there may be heuristic value in such an approach. Data from a genome scan performed using 356 affected sibling pair families with type 1 diabetes were examined looking for evidence of excess sharing of either maternal or paternal alleles. At the insulin gene (IDDM2), evidence for excess sharing of alleles transmitted from mothers was detected, which is consistent with transmission disequilibrium results published elsewhere. We also identified additional loci that demonstrate allele sharing predominantly from one parent: IDDM8 shows a paternal origin effect, IDDM10 shows a maternal effect, and a locus on chromosome 16q demonstrates a paternal effect. We have also evaluated these loci for confounding by differences in sex-specific meiotic recombination by performing linkage analysis using sex-specific genetic maps. The analysis of the parental origin of shared alleles from genome scans of complex disorders may provide additional evidence for linkage for known loci, help identify regions containing additional susceptibility loci, and assist the cloning of the genes involved. 相似文献

Imprinting and deviation from Mendelian transmission ratios. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Deviations from a Mendelian 1:1 transmission ratio have been observed in human and mouse chromosomes. With few exceptions, the underlying mechanism of the transmission-ratio distortion remains obscure. We tested a hypothesis that grandparental-origin dependent transmission-ratio distortion is related to imprinting and possibly results from the loss of embryos which carry imprinted genes with imprinting marks that have been incorrectly reset. We analyzed transmission of alleles in four regions of the human genome that carry imprinted genes presumably critical for normal embryonic growth and development: 11p15.5 (H19, IGF2, HASH2, etc.), 11p13 (WT1), 7p11-12 (GRB10), and 6q25-q27 (IGF2R), among the offspring of 31 three-generation Centre d'Etude de polymorphism Humain (CEPH) families. Deviations from expected 1:1 ratios were found in the maternal chromosomes for regions 11p15.5, 11p13, and 6q25-27 and in the paternal chromosomes for regions 11p15 and 7p11-p12. The likelihood of the results was assessed empirically to be statistically significant (p = 0.0008), suggesting that the transmission ratios in the imprinted regions significantly deviated from 1:1. We did not find deviations from a 1:1 transmission ratio in imprinted regions that are not crucial for embryo viability (13q14 and 15q11-q13). The analysis of a larger set of 51 families for the 11p15.5 region suggests that there is heterogeneity among the families with regard to the transmission of 11p15.5 alleles. The results of this study are consistent with the hypothesis that grandparental-origin dependent transmission-ratio distortion is related to imprinting and embryo loss. 相似文献

Studies of HLA, factor B (Bf), complement C2 and C4 haplotypes in type 1 diabetic and control families from northern Sweden 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The HLA-A,-B,-C,-DR antigens and the complement factors C2, C4 and Bf were determined in 30 insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) patients and 30 healthy controls from northern Sweden. Family studies allowed the deduction of extended haplotypes in the HLA and complement systems. Phenotype studies revealed significant associations between IDDM and HLA-DR4 (p less than 0.001), HLA-DR3 (p less than 0.05), HLA-DR3/4 (p less than 0.025), C4-B3 (p less than 0.001) and Bf-S (p less than 0.025). Haplotype studies showed that the extended haplotype [HLA-B15, C2-1, C4-A3B3, Bf-S, HLA-DR4] had a particularly strong association to IDDM. This haplotype was found in 10 out of 30 IDDM probands but in none of 30 control children and accounts for practically all the C4-B3 allotypes among the 30 IDDM probands. The C4-B3 gene therefore seems to be a valuable marker for IDDM. No haplotype containing HLA-DR3 was increased in frequency among the IDDM probands. The extended haplotype [HLA-B7, C2-1, C4-A3B1, Bf-S, HLA-DR2] present among the controls was absent in the IDDM probands. The frequency of the extended haplotype [HLA-B15, C2-1, C4-A3B3, Bf-S, HLA-DR4] was increased also among the parents to the IDDM probands compared to those of the control parents, whereas the frequency of [HLA-B7, C2-1, C4-A3B1, Bf-S, HLA-DR2] was decreased. The extended haplotype [HLA-B8, C2-1, C4-B1, Bf-S, HLA-DR3] was more common among the males (p less than 0.05) compared to the females in the total material. The family analysis showed that 3 out of 5 affected sibs shared both haplotypes with their IDDM proband. This was the case for only 3 out of 35 unaffected sibs. 相似文献

We studied inheritance at three microsatellite loci in eight F, and two F2 families of the body (clothes) louse of humans, Pediculus humanus. The alleles of heterozygous female-parents were always inherited in a Mendelian fashion in these families. Alleles from heterozygous male-parents, however, were inherited in two different ways: (i) in a Mendelian fashion and (ii) in a non-Mendelian fashion, where males passed to their offspring only one of their two alleles, that is, 100% nonrandom transmission. In male body lice, where there was non-Mendelian inheritance, the paternally inherited set of alleles was eliminated. We interpret this pattern of inheritance as evidence for extreme transmission ratio distortion of paternal alleles in this species. 相似文献

We have analyzed the transmission of maternal alleles at loci spanning the length of the X chromosome in 47 normal, genetic disease-free families. We found a significant deviation from the expected Mendelian 1:1 ratio of grandpaternal:grandmaternal alleles at loci in Xp11.4-p21.1. The distortion in inheritance ratio was found only among male offspring and was manifested as a strong bias in favor of the inheritance of the alleles of the maternal grandfather. We found no evidence for significant heterogeneity among the families, which implies that the major determinant involved in the generation of the non-Mendelian ratio is epigenetic. Our analysis of recombinant chromosomes inherited by male offspring indicates that an 11.6-cM interval on the short arm of the X chromosome, bounded by DXS538 and DXS7, contains an imprinted gene that affects the survival of male embryos. 相似文献

Segregation of HLA haplotypes and offspring genotype distributions were analyzed in families from an inbred Caucasoid population, the Dariusleut Hutterite Brethren. Both parents and from one to 12 offspring were typed for HLA-A and -B antigens in 108 families. Segregation of paternal haplotypes was analyzed conditional on sibship size in 95 sibships (a total of 547 offspring), and segregation of maternal haplotypes, in 90 sibships (a total of 515 offspring). The distribution of the number of different genotypes among the offspring was analyzed conditional on sibship size in 90 families (515 offspring) where four equiprobable genotypes were expected. The distribution of the number of antigenic differences or mismatches for broad specificities between mother and offspring was analyzed in pooled family data consisting of a total of 377 offspring comprising 68 families. Compared with the multinomial distribution of segregation classes of haplotypes, there was no significant departure (probability .05 or less) from the expected segregation ratio for either paternal or maternal haplotypes. Compared with the multinomial distribution of the number of genotypes among the offspring, only two of the 11 sibship sizes had configurations that exceeded the 5% level of significance. Given the number of statistical tests performed, it is likely that these results could be explained by chance variation. Finally, there was no relative deficiency of offspring who were less mismatched with their mother for HLA-A and -B broad specificities. Therefore, if HLA-A,B region variation does have a major effect on the differential survival of fetuses in some families, it is an uncommon factor among fertile couples from this inbred population. 相似文献

The polar, preimplantation-embryo lethal phenotype known as the ``DDK syndrome' in the mouse is the result of the complex
interaction of genetic factors and a parental-origin effect. We previously observed a modest degree of transmission-ratio
distortion in favor of the inheritance of DDK alleles in the Ovum mutant (Om) region of Chromosome (Chr) 11, among offspring of reciprocal F1-hybrid females and C57BL/6 males. In this study, we confirm that a significant excess of offspring inherit DDK alleles from
F1 mothers and demonstrate that the preference for the inheritance of DDK alleles is not a specific bias against the C57BL/6
allele or a simple preference for offspring that are heterozygous at Om. Because none of the previous genetic models for the inheritance of the ``DDK syndrome' predicted transmission-ratio distortion
through F1 females, we reconsidered the possibility that the genes encoding the maternal and paternal components of this phenotype were
not linked. We have examined the fertility phenotype of N2 females and demonstrate that the inter-strain fertility of these females is correlated with their genotype in the Om region. This result establishes, directly, that the genes encoding the maternal and paternal components of the DDK syndrome
are genetically linked.

Autosomal dominant dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) and Machado-Joseph disease (MJD) are neurodegenerative disorders caused by CAG trinucleotide repeat expansions. An inverse correlation of age at onset with the length of the expanded CAG trinucleotide repeats has been demonstrated, and the intergenerational instability of the length of the CAG trinucleotide repeats, which is more prominent in paternal than in maternal transmissions, has been shown to underlie the basic mechanisms of anticipation in DRPLA and MJD. Our previous observations on DRPLA and MJD pedigrees, as well as a review of the literature, have suggested that the numbers of affected offspring exceed those of unaffected offspring, which is difficult to explain by the Mendelian principle of random segregation of alleles. In the present study, we analyzed the segregation patterns in 211 transmissions in 24 DRPLA pedigrees and 80 transmissions in 7 MJD pedigrees, with the diagnoses confirmed by molecular testing. Significant distortions in favor of transmission of the mutant alleles were found in male meiosis, where the mutant alleles were transmitted to 62% of all offspring in DRPLA (chi2 = 7.69; P<.01) and 73% in MJD (chi2 = 6.82; P<.01). The results were consistent with meiotic drive in DRPLA and MJD. Since more prominent meiotic instability of the length of the CAG trinucleotide repeats is observed in male meiosis than in female meiosis and meiotic drive is observed only in male meiosis, these results raise the possibility that a common molecular mechanism underlies the meiotic drive and the meiotic instability in male meiosis. 相似文献

Maternal behaviour has profound, long-lasting implications for the health and
well-being of developing offspring. In the monogamous California mouse
(Peromyscus californicus), care by both parents is critical for
offspring survival. We tested the hypothesis that similar to maternal care in
rodents, paternal huddling and grooming (HG) behaviour can be transmitted to future
generations via behavioural mechanisms. In California mice, testosterone maintains
paternal HG behaviour. In the present study, we randomly assigned a group of male
California mice to castration or sham-operated conditions and allowed them to raise
their offspring normally. Adult sons of these males were paired with a female, and
they were observed interacting with their own offspring. We found that like their
fathers, the sons of castrated males huddled and groomed their young at lower levels
than the sons of sham-operated fathers. The sons of castrates also retrieved pups
more frequently. When both parents were present, the sons of castrates also showed a
trend towards engaging in less exploratory behaviour. These data support the
hypothesis that paternal behaviour, like maternal behaviour, can be transferred to
future generations via epigenetic mechanisms and suggest that in a biparental species
both parents contribute to offspring behavioural development. 相似文献

In pseudo-arrhenotokous mites, haploid males develop from fertilized eggs that undergo paternal genome loss (PGL) during early embryogenesis. We present evidence that some of the paternal genome may be retained in males of the predatory mite Typhlodromus pyri Scheuten (Acari: Phytoseiidae). Two reproductively compatible populations were differentiated by two random amplified polymorphic DNA markers and the inheritance pattern in the offspring was analysed. Maternal transmission rates are variable and independent of the sex of the offspring and of the marker. These data suggest a nuclear origin and independent segregation of the markers. One marker (330 base pairs (bp)) was paternally transmitted to male as well as female offspring, the other (990 bp) was paternally transmitted to all females and some of the male offspring. We propose that the paternal set of inactivated chromosomes may be partially retained in some tissues of the haploid males or, alternatively, that a B chromosome does not follow the process of PGL in male embryos, thereby segregating with the maternal set. The possible mechanisms controlling the condensation and the segregation of the chromosome(s) retained are discussed on the basis of current hypotheses on chromosome inactivation in insects. 相似文献

Land plants possess a multicellular diploid stage (sporophyte) that begins development while attached to a multicellular haploid progenitor (gametophyte). Although the closest algal relatives of land plants lack a multicellular sporophyte, they do produce a zygote that grows while attached to the maternal gametophyte. The diploid offspring shares one haploid set of genes with the haploid mother that supplies it with resources and a paternal haploid complement that is not shared with the mother. Sexual conflict can arise within the diploid offspring because the offspring's maternal genome will be transmitted in its entirety to all other sexual and asexual offspring that the mother may produce, but the offspring's paternally derived genes may be absent from these other offspring. Thus, the selective forces favouring the evolution of genomic imprinting may have been present from the origin of modern land plants. In bryophytes, where gametophytes are long-lived and capable of multiple bouts of asexual and sexual reproduction, we predict strong sexual conflict over allocation to sporophytes. Female gametophytes of pteridophytes produce a single sporophyte and often lack means of asexual reproduction. Therefore, sexual conflict is predicted to be attenuated. Finally, we explore similarities among models of mate choice, offspring choice and segregation distortion. 相似文献

The families of 29 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and 42 normal subjects were studied to determine the inheritance of the HLA-A, B, C, and DR antigens and also the complement polymorphisms for C2, C4A, C4B, and Bf, which are encoded in the same region of the sixth chromosome. Null (silent) alleles for C4A, C4B, or C2 were found in 24 of the 29 (83%) patients compared with 18 of the 42 (43%) normal controls. HLA-DR3 was present in 20 (69%) of the patients and seven out of 39 (18%) of the normal controls. There was strong linkage disequilibrium between DR3 and the null alleles for C4A and C4B. The data did not permit the relative contributions of DR3 and null factors of C4A and C4B as genetic risk factors to be distinguished. The known association of systemic lupus erythematosus with uncommon inherited and acquired deficiencies of complement components suggests, however, that the presence of null alleles for C4A and C4B, as well as C2, found in most of the patients, is relevant to their genetic susceptibility to this disease. 相似文献

107 patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) were typed for HLA A, B, C, and DR antigens, and for complement C4A, C4B, and Bf alleles, and the results were compared with those of a combined reference group of 332 appropriately matched healthy subjects. Supratypes (allelic combinations) were identified from the phenotype of each group, and it was shown that the frequency of several supratypes is increased in patients with IDDM, in particular supratypes (A1 Cw7) B8 C4AQ0 C4B1 BfS DR3 (P = 0.0001), (A30 Cw-) B18 C4A3 C4BQ0 BfF1 DR3 (P = 0.0003), (A2 Cw3) B62 C4AR C4B2.9 BfS DR4 (P = 0.0002), and three other supratypes including DR4. It was also shown that increases in the frequency of individual alleles are secondary to increases in supratype frequency. Moreover, supratypes appeared to interact; the presence of two relevant supratypes being particularly important. The absolute risk of IDDM was approximately 0.5 in subjects who were homozygous for B18 C4A3 C4BQ0 BfF1 DR3. We concluded that genetic susceptibility is best recognized by MHC supratypes rather than isolated alleles, and that supratype combinations make the identification of even greater disease risk possible. 相似文献

The evolution of genomic imprinting is viewed as a problem of economic optimization that is analyzed using the tools of evolutionary game theory. We specifically consider genetic conflicts over the allocation of maternal resources between present and future offspring. Five sets of genes, with the same interests within sets but distinct interests between sets, are considered as agents: maternal alleles (Mater), paternal alleles (Pater), unimprinted offspring alleles (Filius), and imprinted offspring alleles of maternal and paternal origin (Matris and Patris). Fitness functions are derived for each agent and the parameter space in which there is conflict defined. Three potential conflicts are considered: between mother and offspring (Mater v.s. Filius); between alleles of maternal and paternal origin within offspring (Matris v.s. Patris) and between mothers and the paternally derived alleles of offspring (Mater v.s. Patris). 相似文献

Huntington disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant degenerative disorder caused by an expanded and unstable trinucleotide repeat (CAG)n in a gene (IT-15) on chromosome 4. HD exhibits genetic anticipation—earlier onset in successive generations within a pedigree. From a population-based clinical sample, we ascertained parent-offspring pairs with expanded alleles, to examine the intergenerational behavior of the trinucleotide repeat and its relationship to anticipation. We find that the change in repeat length with paternal transmission is significantly correlated with the change in age at onset between the father and offspring. When expanded triplet repeats of affected parents are separated by median repeat length, we find that the longer paternal and maternal repeats are both more unstable on transmission. However, unlike in paternal transmission, in which longer expanded repeats display greater net expansion than do shorter expanded repeats, in maternal transmission there is no mean change in repeat length for either longer or shorter expanded repeats. We also confirmed the inverse relationship between repeat length and age at onset, the higher frequency of juvenile-onset cases arising from paternal transmission, anticipation as a phenomenon of paternal transmission, and greater expansion of the trinucleotide repeat with paternal transmission. Stepwise multiple regression indicates that, in addition to repeat length of offspring, age at onset of affected parent and sex of affected parent contribute significantly to the variance in age at onset of the offspring. Thus, in addition to triplet repeat length, other factors, which could act as environmental factors, genetic factors, or both, contribute to age at onset. Our data establish that further expansion of paternal repeats within the affected range provides a biological basis of anticipation in HD. 相似文献

Species of the families Mytilidae (sea mussels) and Unionidae (fresh water mussels) contain two types of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), the F that behaves as the standard animal mtDNA and the M that is transmitted through the sperm and establishes itself only in the male gonad. The two molecules have, therefore, separate transmission routes, one through the female and the other through the male lineage. The system has been named doubly uniparental inheritance (DUI). Another important feature of sea mussels is that the sex ratio among offspring of a pair mating is determined by the female parent only. The mechanism of DUI remains unknown. One hypothesis that is consistent with all observations is that the standard maternal inheritance was modified in mussels via the evolution of a suppressor gene that is expressed during oogenesis and has two alleles, the inactive and the active allele. In the presence of the active allele in the mother's genotype the egg is supplied with a substance that interferes and the normal mechanism of elimination of sperm mitochondria. This will explain why half of mussels have the father's mtDNA and half do not, but would not explain why presence/absence of paternal mtDNA is linked with the male and female gender, respectively. To provide an explanation for this linkage, one would have to assume that there is a causal relationship between retention of paternal mtDNA and sex determination. 相似文献

The genetic systems of animals and plants are typically eumendelian. That is, an equal complement of autosomes is inherited from each of two parents, and at each locus, each parent's allele is equally likely to be expressed and equally likely to be transmitted. Genetic systems that violate any of these eumendelian symmetries are termed asymmetric and include parent-specific gene expression (PSGE), haplodiploidy, thelytoky, and related systems. Asymmetric genetic systems typically arise in lineages with close associations between kin (gregarious siblings, brooding, or viviparity). To date, different explanatory frameworks have been proposed to account for each of the different asymmetric genetic systems. Haig's kinship theory of genomic imprinting argues that PSGE arises when kinship asymmetries between interacting kin create conflicts between maternally and paternally derived alleles. Greater maternal than paternal relatedness within groups selects for more "abstemious" expression of maternally derived alleles and more "greedy" expression of paternally derived alleles. Here, I argue that this process may also underlie origins of haplodiploidy and many origins of thelytoky. The tendency for paternal alleles to be more "greedy" in maternal kin groups means that maternal-paternal conflict is not a zero-sum game: the maternal optimum will more closely correspond to the optimum for family groups and demes and for associated entities such as symbionts. Often in these circumstances, partial or complete suppression of paternal gene expression will evolve (haplodiploidy, thelytoky), or other features of the life cycle will evolve to minimize the conflict (monogamy, inbreeding). Maternally transmitted cytoplasmic elements and maternally imprinted nuclear alleles have a shared interest in minimizing agonistic interactions between female siblings and may cooperate to exclude the paternal genome. Eusociality is the most dramatic expression of the conflict-reducing effects of haplodiploidy, but its original and more widespread function may be suppression of intrafamilial cannibalism. In rare circumstances in which paternal gene products gain access to maternal physiology via a placenta, PSGE with greedy paternal gene expression can persist (e.g., in mammals). 相似文献

We report here our analysis of HLA class II alleles in 180 Caucasian nuclear families with at least two children with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). DRB1, DQA1, DQB1, and DPB1 genotypes were determined with PCR/sequence-specific oligonucleotide probe typing methods. The data allowed unambiguous determination of four-locus haplotypes in all but three of the families. Consistent with other studies, our data indicate an increase in DR3/DR4, DR3/DR3, and DR4/DR4 genotypes in patients compared to controls. In addition, we found an increase in DR1/DR4, DR1/DR3, and DR4/DR8 genotypes. While the frequency of DQB1*0302 on DR4 haplotypes is dramatically increased in DR3/DR4 patients, DR4 haplotypes in DR1/DR4 patients exhibit frequencies of DQB1*0302 and DQB1*0301 more closely resembling those in control populations. The protective effect of DR2 is evident in this data set and is limited to the common DRB1*1501-DQB1*0602 haplotype. Most DR2+ patients carry the less common DR2 haplotype DRB1*1601-DQB1*0502, which is not decreased in patients relative to controls. DPB1 also appears to play a role in disease susceptibility. DPB1*0301 is increased in patients (P < .001) and may contribute to the disease risk of a number of different DR-DQ haplotypes. DPB1*0101, found almost exclusively on DR3 haplotypes in patients, is slightly increased, and maternal transmissions of DRB1*0301-DPB1*0101 haplotypes to affected children occur twice as frequently as do paternal transmissions. Transmissions of DR3 haplotypes carrying other DPB1 alleles occur at approximately equal maternal and paternal frequencies. The complex, multigenic nature of HLA class II-associated IDDM susceptibility is evident from these data. 相似文献

Genomewide linkage studies of type 1 diabetes (or insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus [IDDM]) indicate that several unlinked susceptibility loci can explain the clustering of the disease in families. One such locus has been mapped to chromosome 11q13 (IDDM4). In the present report we have analyzed 707 affected sib pairs, obtaining a peak multipoint maximum LOD score (MLS) of 2.7 (lambda(s)=1.09) with linkage (MLS>=0.7) extending over a 15-cM region. The problem is, therefore, to fine map the locus to permit structural analysis of positional candidate genes. In a two-stage approach, we first scanned the 15-cM linked region for increased or decreased transmission, from heterozygous parents to affected siblings in 340 families, of the three most common alleles of each of 12 microsatellite loci. One of the 36 alleles showed decreased transmission (50% expected, 45.1% observed [P=.02, corrected P=.72]) at marker D11S1917. Analysis of an additional 1,702 families provided further support for negative transmission (48%) of D11S1917 allele 3 to affected offspring and positive transmission (55%) to unaffected siblings (test of heterogeneity P=3x10-4, corrected P=. 01]). A second polymorphic marker, H0570polyA, was isolated from a cosmid clone containing D11S1917, and genotyping of 2,042 families revealed strong linkage disequilibrium between the two markers (15 kb apart), with a specific haplotype, D11S1917*03-H0570polyA*02, showing decreased transmission (46.4%) to affected offspring and increased transmission (56.6%) to unaffected siblings (test of heterogeneity P=1.5x10-6, corrected P=4.3x10-4). These results not only provide sufficient justification for analysis of the gene content of the D11S1917 region for positional candidates but also show that, in the mapping of genes for common multifactorial diseases, analysis of both affected and unaffected siblings is of value and that both predisposing and nonpredisposing alleles should be anticipated. 相似文献
