The structure of hemoglobin A is tetramer
(2 alfa and 2 beta chains) Autosomal disorders at a molecular DNAlevel
The globin gene clusters on chromosome 16include two alfa globin genes and onchromosome 11 one beta globin gene
Various mutations in the beta globin genecause structural alteration in haemoglobin( e. g. :Hb A, Hb S, Hb C)

THALASSAEMIA
DUE TO A REDUCED RATE OF PRODUCTION0F ONE OR MORE GLOBIN CHAINS
Imbalance in their production
Alfa globin chains may be absent or reducedcalled alfa thallasaemia (normal: 4 genes alfaglobin)
Beta globin chains may be absent or reducedcalled beta thallasaemia.
Mutation in the first intron of beta globingene.

Familial hypercholesterolemia
An autosomal dominant disease affecting 1 in500 individuals5% of myocardial infarction patients underthe age of 60
Characterized by elevated serum cholesterol300-600 mg/dl and low density lipoprotein(LDL) cholesterol greater than 200 mg/dlClinical signs : xanthomas, xanthelasma,atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseaseHomozygous affected have very high bloodcholesterol levels (600-1,200 mg/dl)

Deficiency of LDL receptor
LDL receptor gene is 45 kb in length has 18exons, has been mapped to chromosome 19.
The gene encodes a 5,3 kb mRNAThe ligand binding domain is encoded by 5exons =292 aaEGF precursor homology : 8 exons =400 aaO-linked sugars : 1 exon =58 aaThe membrane spanning :16 exons =22 aa
The cytoplasmic tail : 17 exons = 50 aa

Four various mutation in the LDL
receptor gene (functional classes)1. a failure to synthesize the receptor (13
mutation have been defined)
2. a failure to transport newly synthesizedLDL receptor from ER to the GC3. a failure or deficient in binding LDL4. the LDL receptor fails to be localized in
coated pits and result in defectiveinternalization of bound LDL or receptormislocation

Duchenne muscular dystrophy(DMD)
First described in 1961 X linked pattern of inheritance
A milder form of X linked musculardystrophy identified by Becker in 1955(BMD)The site of the break point : Xp21 bandThe gene product dystrophinThe gene spans 2-4 million base pairsof DNA and contain 79 exons

DMD cont The 14 kilobase mRNA transcriptencodes dystrophinDystrophin is a cytoskeletal membraneprotein and that is expressed in skeletal,cardiac, and smooth musclePatients with DMD have little or nodemonstrable dystrophin proteinPatients with BMD have reduced amountof dystrophin or produce dystrophin ofabnormal size60-70% of male DMD & BMD havedeletion in dystrophin gene.

Huntingtons disease (HD)
An autosomal dominant conditionWith onset of involuntary movement,dementia, personality disorderCommonly occur between the ages 35-55Life expectancy averages 15 years from onset
of symptomsLocalized the gene on p arm of chromosome 4

Huntingtons
HD has now been identified as anexpansion of a CAG trinucleotide repeat
Normal gene have between 9 and 34repeat
97,5%have fewer than 28 repeats
HD have repeats of over 55 trinucleotidewith age at onset under 30 years,although some early onset cases haveshown 35 and 50 repeats.

Fragile X syndromeFirst described in 1969
Around 1 in 2000 individuals with manymore gene carriers
As an X linked trait
Male and female can be affected
Chromosomal analysis : a fragile site nearthe end of the long arm of X chr. at Xq27

Fragile..
Gene has been identified and namedFMR-!Causing : involves amplification of aCGG trinucleotide repeat within this
gene.Repeat number in normal gene variesfrom 6-50PREMUTATION: CGG repeats rangingbetween 50-200 repeatsFULL MUTATION: CGG repeat more200- several thousand repeat

CYSTIC FIBROSIS
Autosomal recessive disorderIn northern Europeans about 1 in 20

Cystic Fibrosis Continue
Affecting exocrine gland function, whichresults in chronic lung disease andmalabsorption
Change in the cystic fibrosis trans-membrane conductance regular gene( CFTR )The mRNA transcript is 6,5 kb in sizeand encodes a poly peptide of 1480amino acid that functions as a chloridechannel.

More cases occur a 3 base pair
deletion in exon 10 of gene -- the
loss of phenylalanine residue at
position 508.
This mutation is called F 508

Collagen and its disorder
At least 12 different type of collagen inhuman bodyThe collagen genes are distributedthroughout the human genome andare represented on several differentchromosome .These genes are large and contain asmany as 50 exonTwo inherited disorder :
osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and
Ehlers- Danlos Syndrome (EDS)

Type 1 Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Is the most commonIt is inherited in an autosomal dominant
Affected individuals : frequent fractures,
have a blue color to their sclera,conductive deafnessInactivation of one allele of the alfa 1gene
Only half of the normal amount of alfa 1protein produced - fragility of bonesExcess of alfa 2 protein chain---degraded

Trinucleotide repeat expansions
A new unstable mutationThree major genetic disorder:- fragile X syndrome,- myotonic dystrophy and
- Huntingtons disease And also been found in:- X linked spinobulbar neuropathy,- dominantly inherited spinocerebral ataxia

ConclusionSome kinds of causes in the molecular genetic
of human disease are:1 - mutation of point in exon2 - mutation of point in intron3 - mutation on one or more gene which
regulate the variance of protein function4 - mutation of gene an enzyme5 - mutation on one gene which it involve in
the protein structural forming6- trinucleotide repeat expansions
