Finding “the gene” for cystic
fibrosis
Finding “the gene” for cystic
fibrosis
Why is this in quotes?
A. CF is not caused by a gene, it’s caused by
multiple genes.
B. CF is not caused by genetic factors.
C. CF is not caused by a gene, it’s caused by a
mutation.
How to find genetic
determinants of naturally
varying traits?

Who cares about benign

Remember Sturtevant?

We are going to do a twopoint cross.
One of our genetic loci is represented by
phenotype; the other is a DNA marker.

In total, 7 of the kids are
non-recombinants and 1
is a recombinant.

True distance 30 cM

observed recombination

12 cM, 18 cM…who cares?
Further experiments need to find the causal variant,
not just a marker. If distances are wrong, could be
hunting for years.

We now know the mutation is near (linked
to) the marker.

If RF = 0.5 (unlinked), would be like flipping a coin 8 times.
How likely would you be to get 7 heads and 1 tail?
If RF = 0.5 (unlinked), would be like flipping a coin 8 times.
How likely would you be to get 7 heads and 1 tail?
How much MORE likely is a model of RF < 0.5?
If RF = 0.5 (unlinked), would be like flipping a coin 8 times.
How likely would you be to get 7 heads and 1 tail?
How much MORE likely is a model of RF < 0.5?
For large cross between known parents,
would use 2 to evaluate significance.
Here we can’t.
