Euploidy: Cells containing only complete sets of chromosomes. gene linkage: Relationship between genes on the same chromosome. inversion: Change in chromosome structure in which a segment of a chromosome is turned around 180 degrees, this reversed sequence of genes can lead to altered gene activity and abnormalitites karyotype: Chromosomes arranged by pairs according to their size, shape, and general appearance in mitotic karyotype metaphase. linkage group: Alleles of different genes that are located on the same chromosome and tend to be inherited together. linkage map: Depicts the distances between loci as well as the order in which they occur on the organism. cell signaling pathway: begins when a chemical signal binds to a receptor protein in a target cell's plasma membrane signal transduction pathway: when the signal causes the receptor protein to initiate a series of reactions, the last reaction activates a transcription activator that enhances the transcription of a specific gene karyotype: visual display of an individual's chromosomes arranged by pairs amniocentesis and chorionic villi sampling: provide fetal cells for karyotyping pedigree: shows the pattern of gene inheritance and the chances of a genetic disorder will be passed on ex vivo techniques: involve genetic engineering of a patient's cells outside the body in vivo techniques: involve attempting to alter cells without removing them various human disorders: result from abnormal chromosome number or structure karyotyping: reveals changes in chromosome number and chromosome structure based on a change in the normal banding patterns of the chromosome DNA: is transcribed to give mRNA DNA ligase: seals DNA into an opening created by the restriction enzyme DNA replication requires: unwinding, complementary base pairing, and joining Initiation: mRNA binds to the smaller of 2 ribosomal subunits, larger subunit associates with the smaller one Joining: the complementary nucleotides join to form new strands. Each daughter DNA molecule contains an old strand and a new strand. Enzyme complex DNA polymerase enzyme DNA ligase seals any breaks in the sugarphosphate backbone P site: for tRNA attached to a peptide Plasmid: 2 enzymes are needed to introduce foreign DNA into plasmid polymerase chain reaction: Chain reaction, requires DNA polymerase, primers, supply of nucleotides primers: single stranded DNA sequences that start the replication process on each DNA strand point mutation: change in a single DNA nucleotide promoter: a region of DNA that contains a special sequence of nucleotides purines with double ring: adenine and guanine
