Dominant Negative
Definition
Spolier
Term
Pleiotropy
Definition
1 single mutant gene that can result in multiple phenotypes
Term
Complementation Test
Definition
Identify all genes that contribute to certain phenotypes.
Term
When 2 mutants give a wildtype...
Definition
Do complement each other and they are separate genes
Term
When 2 mutants do not restore wildtype...
Definition
They do Not complement each other and they are on the same gene
Term
9:3:3:1
Definition
No gene interaction, and 2 mutations are on different allels
Term
9:7
Definition
Interacting genes- absence of both shows an absence of the end product
Term
9:3:4
Definition
Recessive Epistasis- mutant of one gene masks the expression
Term
12:3:1
Definition
Dominant Epistasis- mutant masks WT
Term
9:3:3
Definition
Synthetic Lethals
Term
13:3
Definition
Recessive Suppression
Term
15:1
Definition
Duplicate Genes- both need to be ressessive for the phenotype
Term
How is constant number of cells mantained?
Definition
Mitosis- produces 2 identical cells
Term
Prophase 1 of Meiosis
Definition
Tetrads form (4 chromatids)
Term
Synapsis
Definition
where homogous pairs find and bind to each other
Term
Prophase 1 of Meiosis
Definition
Tetrads form and Crossing over occurs, chiasmata are visible

Gene Theory
Definition
Characters are determined by discrete units that are inherited intact to the next generation.
Term
Mendel's 1st Law
Definition
Equal Segregation- Aa--> 1/2A +1/2a
Term
Gene
Definition
discrete heritable unit- remains intact
Term
Allele
Definition
Form of a gene- each individual has 2 alleles (diploid)
Term
Genotype
Definition
2 alleles that make up gene pair
Term
