MICHAEL HEMANN: Today we're going
1
00:00:01,375 --> 00:00:07,230
to talk about linkage analysis.
2
00:00:07,230 --> 00:00:12,540
And this involves identifying where a particular gene is
3
00:00:12,540 --> 00:00:13,630
on a chromosome.
4
00:00:13,630 --> 00:00:16,680
So we've localized to chromosomes in the past,
5
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:21,400
now we're localizing genes relative to one another.
6
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,830
So why do we want to do this?
7
00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:25,630
Why do we care?
8
00:00:25,630 --> 00:00:29,430
Well, this is actually what geneticists do.
9
00:00:29,430 --> 00:00:32,040
We actually try to start from phenotypes
10
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:33,780
and map the locations of genes.
11
00:00:33,780 --> 00:00:39,390
And by localizing these genes, identify the genetic causes
12
00:00:39,390 --> 00:00:43,420
or underpinnings of phenotypes that we're interested in.
13
00:00:43,420 --> 00:00:48,060
So for example, we can talk about genetic variability
14
00:00:48,060 --> 00:00:49,740
in populations and why some people are
15
00:00:49,740 --> 00:00:52,420
more susceptible to COVID than others.
16
00:00:52,420 --> 00:00:54,420
And this kind of study has been done recently,
17
00:00:54,420 --> 00:00:56,665
and we'll talk about this in a few lectures,
18
00:00:56,665 --> 00:00:58,290
and you'll talk about this kind of work
19
00:00:58,290 --> 00:01:01,140
later in the semester with Olivia Corradin talking
20
00:01:01,140 --> 00:01:03,150
about genome-wide association studies.
21
00:01:03,150 --> 00:01:05,400
But it's the way that we go from something
22
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,690
that we see to an actual molecular detailed picture
23
00:01:09,690 --> 00:01:12,210
of what is the etiology of this condition.
24
00:01:12,210 --> 00:01:15,090
It allows us to identify genes and alterations in genes,
25
00:01:15,090 --> 00:01:17,700
and ideally identify therapeutics
26
00:01:17,700 --> 00:01:24,180
that we can use to actually affect or correct something
27
00:01:24,180 --> 00:01:26,910
that we see as a defect, or in somebody that's resistant,
28
00:01:26,910 --> 00:01:30,000
for example, to COVID, can we identify there a therapeutic
29
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,280
that would help other people?
30
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,430
So mapping is really essential and really is
31
00:01:35,430 --> 00:01:37,440
the bread and butter of what geneticists do.
32
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,360
So we're going to talk about this, basically,
33
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,470
in the next four or five lectures.
34
00:01:43,470 --> 00:01:46,680
And so we're going to start, as we frequently
35
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,820
do, in a model organism that we're comfortable with here,
36
00:01:50,820 --> 00:01:52,560
talking about Drosophila.
37
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,560
And so here I'm showing Drosophila chromosome
38
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:56,850
schematized.
39
00:01:56,850 --> 00:02:00,180
Previously we've mapped genes onto particular chromosomes,
40
00:02:00,180 --> 00:02:01,920
like the X chromosome.
41
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,640
But what if we actually want to map genes on the X chromosome
42
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:06,880
relative to one another?
43
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,889
We want to figure out basically how far they are away from one
44
00:02:10,889 --> 00:02:14,520
another so we can start building a map where all of these
45
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,970
loci, or are all of these places that are demarcated.
46
00:02:17,970 --> 00:02:20,280
And so if we have a new gene, we can localize it
47
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,280
next to these locations, these phenotypes,
48
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,060
and identify what is the cause of alteration or mutation
49
00:02:27,060 --> 00:02:30,960
underlying these alterations.
50
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:37,150
So say we have two alterations on the X chromosome.
51
00:02:37,150 --> 00:02:42,850
So we can write in here genotypes and phenotypes.
52
00:02:42,850 --> 00:02:47,300
53
00:02:47,300 --> 00:02:53,910
And our X chromosome genotypes can be, for example,
54
00:02:53,910 --> 00:02:56,780
if we're looking at two genes, one is white eyes,
55
00:02:56,780 --> 00:02:58,883
or the mutation causes a white eye phenotype,
56
00:02:58,883 --> 00:03:00,050
and the other is mini wings.
57
00:03:00,050 --> 00:03:02,210
So white eyes and little wings, these
58
00:03:02,210 --> 00:03:05,900
are the things that Drosophila biologists think about.
59
00:03:05,900 --> 00:03:13,890
So if you are w plus and m plus on the X chromosome,
60
00:03:13,890 --> 00:03:14,790
you're wild type.
61
00:03:14,790 --> 00:03:18,410
62
00:03:18,410 --> 00:03:31,490
If you are w plus and m minus, you have mini wings with wings.
63
00:03:31,490 --> 00:03:40,370
If you are w minus m plus, you have white eyes.
64
00:03:40,370 --> 00:03:43,390
So three phenotypes that we can--
65
00:03:43,390 --> 00:03:45,970
two phenotypes and a lack thereof that we can clearly
66
00:03:45,970 --> 00:03:49,450
see in male flies.
67
00:03:49,450 --> 00:03:51,490
So let's do a little cross.
68
00:03:51,490 --> 00:03:58,760
And so we'll start with a white-eyed male.
69
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,330
And we'll cross to a mini wings female.
70
00:04:02,330 --> 00:04:13,180
So w plus m minus w plus m minus on both chromosomes.
71
00:04:13,180 --> 00:04:18,019
And so the progeny from this cross, if you are a female,
72
00:04:18,019 --> 00:04:20,589
the females are going to be heterozygous at both
73
00:04:20,589 --> 00:04:21,610
of these loci.
74
00:04:21,610 --> 00:04:25,600
So they're going to have one allele that's w minus m plus
75
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,815
and one allele that's w plus m minus.
76
00:04:29,815 --> 00:04:33,830
77
00:04:33,830 --> 00:04:38,850
We can take this female, this double heterozygote female,
78
00:04:38,850 --> 00:04:42,680
and cross to a wild-type male.
79
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,650
80
00:04:45,650 --> 00:04:49,700
And we'll do this just to see the interactions of the two
81
00:04:49,700 --> 00:04:53,100
chromosomes in this female.
82
00:04:53,100 --> 00:04:56,120
So we want to know, are these two alleles
83
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,660
staying together or are they moving away from one another?
84
00:04:59,660 --> 00:05:02,850
Is there recombination that's occurring?
85
00:05:02,850 --> 00:05:07,500
So from this cross, we essentially
86
00:05:07,500 --> 00:05:12,090
get two categories of male flies.
87
00:05:12,090 --> 00:05:13,890
So one of them--
88
00:05:13,890 --> 00:05:25,940
category will have w minus m plus or w plus m minus.
89
00:05:25,940 --> 00:05:28,430
And this we'll call parental.
90
00:05:28,430 --> 00:05:34,850
And we'll call it parental because the alleles here
91
00:05:34,850 --> 00:05:38,270
are the same alleles that we see, essentially,
92
00:05:38,270 --> 00:05:42,990
in these parental types above.
93
00:05:42,990 --> 00:05:46,920
So they're suggestive that there's no recombination here,
94
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,260
that they've stayed together on the same chromosome.
95
00:05:49,260 --> 00:05:50,770
They're on the X chromosome.
96
00:05:50,770 --> 00:05:53,430
So they haven't moved apart from one another.
97
00:05:53,430 --> 00:05:55,380
Alternatively, we can get different classes.
98
00:05:55,380 --> 00:05:57,750
And so one of the different classes that we can get
99
00:05:57,750 --> 00:06:06,880
is w minus m minus, or w plus m plus.
100
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,310
So something's happened here.
101
00:06:09,310 --> 00:06:12,760
There's been some reassortment of alleles.
102
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:24,200
And so we call these recombinants or crossovers.
103
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:29,450
Because they're not represented in the parental class.
104
00:06:29,450 --> 00:06:32,360
So we can enumerate the relative ratios
105
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,460
of these parentals versus these
106
00:06:34,460 --> 00:06:36,910
recombinants, or crossovers.
107
00:06:36,910 --> 00:06:42,240
108
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:47,800
And so if the number of parentals
109
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:52,940
equals the number of crossovers or recombinant,
110
00:06:52,940 --> 00:06:59,290
then we call these loci unlinked.
111
00:06:59,290 --> 00:07:02,955
So this is the characteristic of independent assortment.
112
00:07:02,955 --> 00:07:04,330
This is what we would see if they
113
00:07:04,330 --> 00:07:06,310
were on different chromosomes.
114
00:07:06,310 --> 00:07:20,780
So if the parentals exceed the number of crossovers,
115
00:07:20,780 --> 00:07:25,760
and we say that they're slightly more,
116
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:33,980
then we'll say that these are weakly linked,
117
00:07:33,980 --> 00:07:36,830
meaning that they are on the same chromosome,
118
00:07:36,830 --> 00:07:40,370
but they're probably some distance away from another.
119
00:07:40,370 --> 00:07:51,880
So finally if we have many more parentals, then the crossovers,
120
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:58,010
we'll say that they are tightly linked,
121
00:07:58,010 --> 00:08:00,570
that they really don't move away from one another.
122
00:08:00,570 --> 00:08:04,700
And in fact, when they're really, really close together,
123
00:08:04,700 --> 00:08:12,990
crossovers may not appear.
124
00:08:12,990 --> 00:08:15,270
If they're really, really tightly linked,
125
00:08:15,270 --> 00:08:20,150
these crossovers are going to be really, really rare.
