| 11. | Other results point to the hypothesis of sex-linked genes, or, inheritance through the maternal chromosome.
|
| 12. | That is, females carrying a sex-linked gene of dwarfism are always pure and exhibit the trait.
|
| 13. | Here, a complex of proteins bind to the X-linked genes to effectively double their genetic activity.
|
| 14. | Most of the phenotypical variation among breeds can be explained by the sex-linked gene " K ".
|
| 15. | This mainly occurs with sex-linked genes ( i . e ., those on the sex chromosomes ).
|
| 16. | The bead-linked genes are then rendered single-stranded so that each is ready to bind with its counterpart.
|
| 17. | Histone acetylation and the consequent upregulation of X-linked genes in males is dictated by the MSL complex.
|
| 18. | However, it is important to note that recombination frequency tends to underestimate the distance between two linked genes.
|
| 19. | The current estimate of sequenced X-linked genes is 499 and the total including vaguely defined traits is 983.
|
| 20. | In rare occasions, a dominant form of the X-linked gene mutation will affect both males and females equally.
