DNA FInGERPRINTING dint the preceding section, 99.9 per cent of base sequence among ts the same. Assuming human genome as , in how base sequences would there be differences? It is these differences palence of DNA which make every individual unique in their wyplc appearance. If one aims to find out genetic differences en two individuals or among individuals of a population. wencing the DNA every time would be a daunting and expensive [1nagine trying to compare two sets of base pairs. DNA (erprinting is a very quick way to compare the DNA sequences of any DNA fingerprinting involves identifying differences in some specific (10ns in DNA sequence called as repetitive DNA, because in these Gul are separated from bulk genomic DNA as different peaks during kensity gradient centrifugation. The bulk DNA forms a major peak and foe other small peaks are referred to as satellite DNA. Depending on base composition (A: T rich or G:C rich), length of segment, and number s (frepetitive units, the satellite DNA is classified into many categories. acch as micro-satellites, mini-satellites etc. These sequences normally s bo not code for any proteins, but they form a large portion of human gnome. These sequence show high degree of polymorphism and form the basis of DNA fingerprinting. Since DNA from every tissue (such as thod, hair-follicle, skin, bone, saliva, sperm etc.), from an individual thow the same degree of polymorphism, they become very useful ientification tool in forensic applications. Further, as the polymorphisms are inheritable from parents to children, DNA fingerprinting is the basis fpaternity testing, in case of disputes. As polymorphism in DNA sequence is the basis of genetic mapping Whuman genome as well as of DNA fingerprinting, it is essential that we inderstand what DNA polymorphism means in simple terms. blymorphism (variation at genetic level) arises due to mutations. (Recall ifferent kind of mutations and their effects that you have already tudied in Chapter 5, and in the preceding sections in this chapter.) ew mutations may arise in an individual either in somatic cells or in germ cells (cells that generate gametes in sexually reproducing Janisms). If a germ cell mutation does not seriously impair individual's ility to have offspring who can transmit the mutation, it can spread to

(12) LINKAGE AND RECOMBINATION - Morgan carried out several dihybrid crosses in Drosophila to study genes that were sexlinked, similar to the dihybrid crosses of Mendel in peas. But the ratios deviated significantly from 9 (expected when the two genes are independent). - When two genes in a dihybrid cross were situated on the same chromosome, the proportion of parental gene combinations were much higher than non-parental type. Morgan attributes it to physical association or linkage of two genes and used term recombination to describe non-parental gene combinations. - Some genes were very-tightly linked (Showed very low recombinations), while others were loosely linked (Showed higher recombinations). - Morgan's student Alfred Sturtevant used frequency of recombination between genes on same chromosome as a measure of distance between genes and mapped their position on chromosomes. Today GENETIC MAPS are extensively used as a starting point in sequencing whole genomes as done in case of Human Genome Project.
