Autosomal Recessive disorders are almost always which type?
Structural/Metabolic
Metabolic
Name 4 metabolic disorders which are X-linked recessive
Hunter’s disease (= Mucopolysaccaridosis or MPS type 2)
G6PD deficiency
Adenoleukodystrophy (Childhood form)
Ornithine transcarbamoylase deficiency
Name 6 metabolic disorders which are autosomal dominant
Hyperlipidaemia type II (a,b)
Familial hypercholesterolemia (=hyperlipidaemia IIa)
Hypokalaemic periodic paralysis
Hyperthermia (Malignant)
Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP)
Porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT)
Variegate porphyria
Hurler’s disease comes into which category of disease?
Mucopolysaccharidoses
What is the inheritence pattern of mucopolysaccharidoses?
All mucopolysaccharidoses : Autosomal recessive
Hurler’s disease: Autosomal recessive
Hunter’s disease: X-linked recessive
Who are affected by autosomal recessive disorders?
heterozygotes/homozygotes/both?
Only homozygotes are affected and manifest the disease
Who are affected by autosomal recessive conditions?
Male or female?
Both
What is the carrier status for autosomal recessive disorders?
All heterozygous are carrier
Do autosomal recessive disorders manifest in every generation?
NO
Autosomal recessive do NOT manifest in every generation; may skip a generation
What are the possible combinations of genotype in parents/couple in recessive conditions?
Heterozygote carrier + normal
Heterozygote carrier + Heterozygote carrier
Heterozygote carrier + Homozygote (affected)
Homozygote (affected) + Homozygote (affected)
Homozygote (affected) + normal
If one parent is heterozygote carrier + another normal, what are the chances among children?
(can use pen & paper)
Each child has 0% chance of being affected (homozygote)
Each child has 50% chance of being a carrier (heterozygote)
Each child has 50% chance of being a normal
If both parents are heterozygote carriers, what are the chances among children?
(can use pen & paper)
Each child has 25% chance of being affected (homozygote)
Each child has 50% chance of being carrier (heterozygote)
Each child has 25% chance of being normal (not carrier/affected) child (i.e. genotypical child)
If one parent is heterozygote carrier + another homozygote (affected), what are the chances among children?
(can use pen & paper)
Each child has 50% chance of being affected (homozygote)
Each child has 50% chance of being carrier (heterozygote)
If both parents are homozygotes (affected), what are the chances among children?
(can use pen & paper)
Each child has 100% chance of being affected (homozygote)
