Your genetics load the gun. Your lifestyle
pulls the trigger – Mehmet Oz.
All diseases of Mankind except accidental
injuries have a genetic component to it.

Mendelian Inheritance
1. Autosomal Dominant
2. Autosomal Recessive
3. X linked Dominant
4. X linked Recessive

The law of segregation
When any individual
produces gametes, the copies
of a gene separate so that each
gamete receives only one copy
(allele). A gamete will receive
one allele or the other.

The Law of Independent Assortment
The alleles of different genes assort
independently of one another during gamete
formation.

Autosomal Dominant
Most affected parents are
heterozygous.
Why?
1. Low incidence of the disease
per se (1/10,000).
2. Lethality of homozygous
individuals.
Eg: Achondroplasia,
Marfan’s syndrome.

Hallmarks:
No skipping of generations - Longitudinal
Inheritance.
No sexual predilection.
Normal offspring don't transmit the disease.
Usually structural proteins are affected.

1. Variable Expressivity.
Eg: Marfan’s syndrome.
2. Late Onset.
Eg: Huntington’s chorea.
3. High Recurrent Mutation Rate.
Eg: Achondroplasia.
4. Incomplete Penetrance.

Autosomal Recessive
Most affected individuals have
parents heterozygotes (Normal).
Why?
1. Low incidence of the disease
per se (1/10,000).
The likelihood of two affected
persons mating would be1/10,000
x 1/10,000 or 1/100,000,000.
Eg: Cystic fibrosis,
β- Thalassemia.

Hallmarks:
No sex predilection.
Horizontal Inheritance.
Parents of affected children may be related.
The rarer the trait in the general population, the more
likely a consanguineous mating is involved.
The trait may appear as an isolated (sporadic) event in
small sibships.

X linked disorders
X-linked genes are never passed from father to son.
An affected female must have an affected father.
A single dose of a mutant allele will produce a mutant phenotype in the male.(Both dom & rec.)

X linked Dominant
All daughters of an affected male are affected.
All sons of an affected male and a normal female are normal.
Males are usually more severely affected than females.
Females are more likely to be affected than males, even if the disease is not lethal in males.

X linked Dominant
Eg:
X linked Hypophosphatasia.
Rett’s Syndrome.
Alport’s Syndrome.22

X linked Recessive
Males are affected. Females are carriers.
Oblique mode of transmission.Uncle – Nephew affected.
Never occur in females except:
Turner’s syndrome.
Lyon hypothesis.
Born to affected father & carrier female.
Testicular feminisation syndrome.

Skipping of generations?
Yes

only males affected
Autosomal recessive
Dominant
Father to son?
All daughters of father affected?
Autosomal Dominant
X linked Dominant
No
NoYes

Mitochondrial inheritance
Maternal transmission.
The ovum -100,000 copies of mtDNA;
The sperm - <100 copies, and these are
probably lost at fertilization.
Eg: Neurological problems,
Lactic acidosis. (MELAS, Kearns Sayre
disease, LHON)

Several loci are involved in the expression of the trait.
There is no dominance or recessivity at each of these loci.
The loci act in concert in an additive fashion, each adding or detracting a small amount from
the phenotype.
Nature and nurture.

Most affected children have normal parents.
Applicable for traits with continuous distribution.
Consanguinity slightly increases the risk for an affected child.

Take Home Message
Most diseases have a genetic
component to them.
Mendelian disorders are potential candidates for gene therapy.
Lifestyle modifications have a role to play in preventing Multifactorial diseases.
Meticulous pedigree analysis & counselling can reduce the burden of genetic diseases in the society.
