Penetrance continuum
Monogenic diseases …………… Complex diseases
2
The presence of a single mutant allele Is decisive in the development of the disease
The „appropriate” environment and other alleles of different genes are also
necessary for the development of the diseases

Selection against the complex diseases
The causes for the high prevalence of complex diseases
1. The negative selection is not efficient – the disease appears at middle or old age 2. Is it a tool in the hand of evolution for providing an optimal life time?

Monogenic Diseases

Heterozygote advantage
2 normal hemoglobins
1 normal + 1 mutant
hemoglobins
2 mutant hemoglobins
5
The survival of heterozygote is better, than those of carrying two homozygous normal alleles
The classic example: sickle cell anaemy: the heterozygotes are resistant against malaria
The elimination of mutant alleles takes time!

XY – sick males
The X –linked diseases are frequent in males, but rare in females
Y-linked diseases are rare, since there are few genes on Y chromosome
6
Why is there difference between the sexes if the X chr. is inactivated? 1. The pseudo-autosomal region is active 2. There is no inactivation in the early stage of embryogenesis 3. The mosaic expression is often enough for the functionality
