If you were to use a binomial system to identify the members of your family (mother, father, sisters, brothers), how would you write their names so that your system would most closely approximate that used to designate species?

Comparing MHC I a-chain and b2-microglobulin (b2-MG) in a family of six, including mom, dad and two daughters and two sons:

1) Among the six family members, which pair is more likely to find similarity between the two for possible transplant, father/mother, mother/daughter, father/son, father/daughter, or siblings? Why?

2) Deficiency in b2-MG was reported in 2 siblings. How does the b2-MG deficiency affect their immune system?

3) Hypothetical question: if an individual had genetic alterations in MHC-I, resulting in deletion of HLA-B, C, E, F and G gene loci, leaving only HLA-A intact, what would you expect of the immune system in this individual and why? Would this individual have similar phenotype to the one seen with the deficiency in b2-MG?

You are studying a colony of naked pigmy mole rats of theAfrican plain. You have noticed that within your colony some of therats are larger then others, and that all of the large rats haveblue eyes, while all of the small rats have brown eyes. You havedetermined that both the large size and blue eyes are dominant. Youpick out a family to study. The Father is large with blue eyes andwas the son of a large brown-eyed mother and a small blue eyedfather. The Mother is small and has brown eyes, and they have 16children. Seven of them are large with brown eyes, eight of themare small with blue eyes, and one is small with brown eyes.

Write out the genotypes of the Mother and Father of yourfamily.

You are pretty sure that these two genes are linked. Arethe fatherâs genes in Cis or Trans? How did youknow?

Based on the family you are studying what is the mapdistance between your genes?

1)If you are studying how gene sequences among closely-related species evolved, what type of sampling design would you use? Explain why.

2)If you are studying how population allele frequencies and genotype frequencies were shaped by evolutionary forces, what type of sampling design would you use? Explain why.

3)If you are studying how allele frequencies or genotype frequencies within groups in a population differ, or trying to reconstruct family relationships, what type of sampling design would you use? Explain why.
