Males and females differ by huge tracts of genetic material — a Y chromosome that males have and that females don't, and a second X chromosome that females have and males don't.
|
|
One X chromosome is inherited from mothers; fathers may contribute a Y or X. The researchers observed that the X chromosome of African-Americans has a greater African ancestry than other chromosomes.
|
|
In most cases, losing a chromosome or having an extra one is lethal, said Jeannie Lee, a geneticist and expert on the X chromosome at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital.
|
|
But whereas the Y-chromosome test looks only at 223 positions on one chromosome, the 22012 marker test looks at 25 sites across multiple chromosomes, greatly diminishing the odds of an accidental match.
|
|
And he doesn't want to synthesize just any Y chromosome.
|
|
Normal sex cells contain a single copy of each chromosome.
|
|
The genetic profile from the Y-chromosome is called a haplotype, and identical haplotypes are passed from father to son, so a population potentially contains many men with the same exact Y-chromosome profile.
|
|
For example, some sperm will contain a copy of the father's Y chromosome that makes the child develop into a boy and some will carry the father's X chromosome, which makes the child a girl.
|
|
The disorder is only rarely inherited, but when a father has Prader-Willi syndrome caused by a deletion in chromosome 15, there's a 50 percent chance each child he fathers will inherit the defective chromosome.
