Dominance (genetics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In genetics, dominance describes a relationship between different forms (alleles) of a gene at a particular physical location (locus) on a chromosome. Typical plants and animals have two sets of chr...

Since autosomes occur in pairs (unlike the sex chromosomes), both males and females have equal numbers of genes on the autosomes. Most of the autosomal genes are recessive and require that both mutant genes be present ... For example: a cross between a dark (wild type) male and a pied female will produce all dark offspring.

A gene found on one of the 22 autosomal chromosome pairs; i.e., not on a sex (X or Y) chromosome. ... The transfer of autosomal genes to the Y chromosome may have countered this deterioration somewhat, they say.

There is scattered evidence that genes are behind sexual orientation. As specific genes determining homosexuality are still to be found, scientists only have been able to draw some hypotheses to explain the evolutionary causes of homosexuality.

Mutations in the type I procollagen genes have not been found in these patients. This form of syndrome resembling osteogenesis imperfecta is the result of mutations of the CRTAP gene. Inheritance appears to be autosomal dominant.

However, very small areas of the X and Y chromosome have matched genes. During the normal division of reproductive (sex) cells (meiosis), these areas pair up and "cross over." The genes located in these areas transmit in a fashion similar to genes found on autosomes (pseudoautosomal inheritance).

While C-type genes, which are found in two of the clusters, exhibit a true repetitive character, the B-type genes of the third cluster are each embedded in completely different genomic environments.

We investigated three tumor suppressor genes for aberrant splicing in tumors. ... At a low frequency per exon it was found in five of seven of the investigated in-frame exons of the neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) gene, in two of three exons of the neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) gene, and in one of three exons of the...

Another type of protein, ... These unmatched sex chromosomes produce a pattern of gene inheritance known as sex-linked inheritance, which differs from genes found on autosomes. In males, which carry an X and a Y chromosome, some genes found on the X chromosome may be missing on the Y chromosome.

The theoretical basis of inbreeding is to produce stock of consistent excellence through creation of homozygous type. ... Autosomal recessive genes—recessive genes found on autosomes (chromosomes other than the sex chromosomes found in sperm and eggs. They normally occur within cells in pairs).
