Abstract:

The parental transmission of HLA-2 antigen in association with the epitopes BW4 and BW6 (class I HLA haplotypes locus A,B) was analyzed in sons and daughters from 42 families in which one of the parents carried the HLA-A2 antigen. When the parental transmission of A2 BW4 and A2 BW6 was compared, it was observed that a significantly higher number of siblings inherited the haplotype A2 BW4 from the paternal than from the maternal haplotype. Although the number of cases is small, the mode of inheritance of haplotype A2 BW6 was completely different. The genetic distortion in the transmission of HLA-2 BW4 and HLA-2 BW6 was observed in children of both sexes.

Sex-linked Disorders

Like autosomes, sex chromosomes contain a variety of genes necessary for normal body function. When a mutation in one of these genes results in biological deficits, the disorder is considered sex-linked.

Mismatch Repair

Mismatch Repair

Organisms are capable of detecting and fixing nucleotide mismatches that occur during DNA replication. This sophisticated process requires identifying the new strand and replacing the erroneous bases with correct nucleotides. Mismatch repair is coordinated by many proteins in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
