Dominant and Recessive Genes


Genotypeunderlying genetic makeup Phenotypetraits that are expressed Dominant geneswill always be expressed if present Codominant Recessive geneswill not be expressed unless they are in a pair

What is Epigenetics?
Heritable changes in phenotype or gene expression caused by mechanisms other than changes in DNA sequence. Epigenetics causes the organism's genes to behave differently, such as the changes seen when cells differentiate or become malignant.

Sex Linked Traits


Traits linked to the X or Y (sex) chromosomes (46,X,Y) Usually recessive and carried on the X chromosome Appear more frequently in one sex than another Color blindness, baldness, hemophilia, Fragile X

Overview
What is PKU? Diagnosis of PKU Discovery of PKU PKU Diet Women (pregnant) with PKU Quiz/Questions

36

Apakah Phenylketonuria?
Inherited metabolic disease Autosomal recessive disease Phenylalanine is not metabolized to tyrosine due to deficiency or inactivity of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH). PKU is caused by a mutation in a gene on chromosome 12. There are three different ways PAH enzyme can affect the conversion of phe to tyr.
37

Phenylketonuria
Most common inborn error in amino acid metabolism High phe can cause neurologic damage Unusual compounds: phenylpyruvate; phenyllactate; phenylacetate
Brain toxicity: reduced uptake of other aromatic amino acids Tyrosine deficiency may lead to hypopigmentation Cofactor processing can also be defective
38

Living with PKU

39

Cara Diagnosis PKU


Tested for at birth in all 50 states (AMERICA) Guthrie bacterial inhibition assay is most common test done. If positive test, have to retest to determine if it is defect in BH4 (cofactor to PAH) or PKU. If blood concentration of phe exceeds 6 mg/dl and tyr levels are less than 3 mg/dl test is positive for PKU. There are different levels of severity for PKU: mild PKU= >6 mg/dl and PKU= >20 mg/dl.
40 http://www.pkunews.org/

Pentingnya Diagnosis Dini PKU


individuals without early diagnosis develop complications such as severe mental retardation/low IQ, heart defects Early diagnosis is important to prevent these complications as soon as possible. If PKU is caught and treated early, children are healthy and grow up with normal IQ levels.

41

To decrease phenylalanine levels Between 2-6 mg/dl are considered safe levels. To increase tyrosine Because the bodys PAH gene does not work properly, tyrosine synthesis is compromised
42

Tujuan diet PKU

Transisi ke makanan padat


Childs rate of growth and development must be closely monitored Effective management requires cohesive team child, parents, social worker, registered dietitian, pediatrician, psychologist, and nurse work together Goal is to maintain biochemical control, and provide an atmosphere for normal mental and emotional development
43

Diet PKU seumur hidup


Current Recommendations Effective management of blood phenylalanine concentrations should be done throughout life Some studies have found a correlation between prolonged and significant elevation of blood phe levels, and declining intellectual capabilities in adults. Regular testing should be done to make sure the PKU diet is effective in disease maintenance. If phenylalanine and tyrosine levels are unsafe, appropriate adjustments in diet should be made.
44

High Maternal blood phenylalanine levels are extremely toxic to the developing embryo/fetus: Severe mental retardation Small head size (microcephaly) Heart defects Low birth weight Characteristic facial features/defects These complications are a result of high blood phe levels in mother the baby is affected even if he/she does not inherit PKU.
45

Ibu Hamil dengan PKU 1/2

Ibu Hamil dengan PKU 2/2


Special diet is essential to help prevent birth defects Special PKU diet and regular screening for phenylalanine levels should begin at least three months prior to becoming pregnant. Continuing the diet and regular screening during pregnancy can decrease chance of complications Blood tests need to be done at least once a week. Even a mother who follows the special diet may still have a baby with birth defects
46

G6PD Deficiency
G6PD Deficiency is also called Glucose-6phosphate Dehydrogenate. It is a common enzyme deficiency. There are about 400 million people do have G6PD Deficiency. In Africa, theres one G6PD Deficient person per four people.

47

Percent of people who have G6PD Deficiency

48

G6PD Deficiency
G6PD enzyme is located on sex ` enzyme is X-linked gene. Males are more likely to have defective gene than females do because G6PD deficiency will only manifest itself in females when there are two defective copies of the gene in the genome. As long as there is one good copy of the G6PD gene in a female, a normal enzyme will be produced and this normal enzyme can then take over the function that the defective enzyme lacks.
49

Anemia Hemolitik
G6PD deficiency cause red blood cells no longer transport oxygen effectively throughout the body. This condition is called Hemolytic Anemia Arises. There are other conditions that also caused by G6PD deficiency- neonatal jaundice, abdominal back pain, dizziness, headache, irregular breathing, and palpitations.

Epigenetic Biology of Normal Cells


The methylation of cytosines in DNA is the most widely studied epigenetic modification with 36% of all cytosines methylated in normal human DNA. The methylation of DNA is located in regions known as CpG islands.

Repetitive genomic sequences are highly methylated to protect chromosomal integrity by preventing the reactivation of transposable elements such as LINES, SINES, HERVS.
The healthy cell regulates genes and tissue-specific genes in the germ line through DNA methylation, such as genomic imprinting and X-chromosome inactivation.

Epigenetic Biology of Normal Cells

Lysine methylation at H3K9, H3K27, and H4K20 gene silencing Lysine methylation at H3K4, H3K36, and H3K79 gene activation.

Conception to Full Term


First Trimester

Begins with conception, when 1 sperm penetrates the ovum (egg) in the outer third of the fallopian tube. The zygote (fertilized ovum) travels through the fallopian tube toward the uterus, dividing along the way. At the back of the group of cells, or morula, is a rootlike projection that will eventually become the placenta.
