| ⚫ | There are two methods in creating a chromosome map: genetic mapping and physical mapping. For [[Gene mapping|genetic mapping]], recombinations of DNA markers and [[Gene|genes]] in [[Chromosome|chromosomes]] are analysed and a probabilistic model helps predict the linear arrangement of genes. In physical mapping, the [[gene]] is cleaved by [[Restriction enzyme|restriction enzymes]]. The distance between cleavage sites and size of gene fragments are measured in order to generate the genetic map. |

The concept of chromosome mapping was suggested by biologist Thomas Hunt Morgan in 1911. When he was studying fruit flies, he found that some traits were different from Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment and there was clear evidence on genetic linkage. He found that the white eye gene in Drosophila was located on the X chromosome. This helps identify other X-linked genes and the mapping. The outcome is a chromosome map that shows a linear arrangement of genes. |
The concept of chromosome mapping was suggested by biologist [[Thomas Hunt Morgan]] in 1911.

He found that the white eye gene in [[Drosophila]] was located on the X chromosome. This helps identify other X-linked genes and the mapping. The outcome is a chromosome map that shows a linear arrangement of genes.<ref name=":0" /> However, genetic mapping to humans did not become commonplace until the 1950s, due to the obstacle of identifying which traits were associated with genetic mutations. In 1980, the discovery of [[Restriction fragment length polymorphism|Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms (RFLPs)]] made mapping easier and pushed forward the development of comprehensive chromosome maps. <ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Beckmann |first1=J.

In particular, genetic linkage between two genes is determined based on their respective distance and locations on the [[Chromosome|chromosomes]] – in linked genes, the closer distance leads to a higher probability being inherited together; while for unlinked genes, the distance is further apart where independent inheritance is more likely, indicating the genes are located on different [[Chromosome|chromosomes]]. <ref name=":3" />In addition, the inheritance patterns for genes located on same [[chromosome]] depend on recombination frequency, which influences their [[genetic linkage]] profile – linked or unlinked. <ref name=":3" />Through studying recombination of DNA markers and genes in [[Chromosome|chromosomes]], it provides further insights on inheritance patterns, possibility of recombinations during meiosis. |

Chromosome mapping is a method determining the relative position of genes within a chromosome. [1] This process creates a map that shows genetic information on chromosomes by showing the gene positions and distances between them, represented on a standardised scale. It is discovered by Thomas Hunt Morgan when investigating the Drosophila gene. The advancement of sequencing technology and statistics make chromosome mapping more commonplace. The development of chromosome mapping also pushed forward the onset of Human Genome Project. By mapping all the chromosomes, a comprehensive map of human genome is created. The outcome serves as a reference of human genome which greatly benefits the future research on genetics.
There are two methods in creating a chromosome map: genetic mapping and physical mapping. For genetic mapping, recombinations of DNA markers and genes in chromosomes are analysed and a probabilistic model helps predict the linear arrangement of genes. In physical mapping, the gene is cleaved by restriction enzymes. The distance between cleavage sites and size of gene fragments are measured in order to generate the genetic map.
History
[edit]The concept of chromosome mapping was suggested by biologist Thomas Hunt Morgan in 1911. When he was studying fruit flies, he found that some traits were different from Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment and there was clear evidence on genetic linkage. He found that the white eye gene in Drosophila was located on the X chromosome. This helps identify other X-linked genes and the mapping. The outcome is a chromosome map that shows a linear arrangement of genes.[1] However, genetic mapping to humans did not become commonplace until the 1950s, due to the obstacle of identifying which traits were associated with genetic mutations. In 1980, the discovery of Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms (RFLPs) made mapping easier and pushed forward the development of comprehensive chromosome maps. [2] In the late 1980s, rough maps encompassing the whole chromosomes were constructed successfully. In mid-1990s, the refinement of statistical analysis methods enabled researchers to construct a whole-genome genetic map covering all chromosomes. [3]
One of the major milestones in chromosome mapping is the Human Genome Project, an worldwide collaboration to determine the full sequence of the entire human genome, based on genetic information obtained from chromosomes. [4][5] The project was initiated in 1990 and achieved near completion in 2003, findings were subsequently published in 2004 for worldwide and public access. [5][6] While continuous refinement was ongoing to tackle the remaining gaps in human genome sequence. Ultimately, the complete and gapless sequence of the human genome was mapped in 2022 and published globally, indicating the whole human genome sequence was deciphered successfully. [7] The Human Genome Project provided valuable insights to human genetics and illustrated the continuous progression of genomic research, in addition to its versatile application in various aspects of medicine and public health.
Method
[edit]Overview of Chromosome Mapping
[edit]
Chromosome Mapping provides the relative location of genes in chromosomes, which is crucial for investigating the arrangement and organisation of genetic information. Chromosome mapping is divided into two categories - involves genetic mapping and physical mapping.
Genetic Mapping
[edit]Genetic Mapping investigates organisation of genes and DNA markers using linkage analysis, to predict gene positions and recombination frequencies between genes. [1][8]The measurement is based on the unit centiMorgan (cM), where one centiMorgan is roughly one million base pairs in the human genome. Additionally, each centiMorgan indicates a 1% probability of two genetic markers/genes being separated by recombination during meiosis.[9]Therefore the increase of distance between those genes also increases the chance of recombination occurring, indicating higher recombination frequency.
In particular, genetic linkage between two genes is determined based on their respective distance and locations on the chromosomes – in linked genes, the closer distance leads to a higher probability being inherited together; while for unlinked genes, the distance is further apart where independent inheritance is more likely, indicating the genes are located on different chromosomes. [9]In addition, the inheritance patterns for genes located on same chromosome depend on recombination frequency, which influences their genetic linkage profile – linked or unlinked. [9]Through studying recombination of DNA markers and genes in chromosomes, it provides further insights on inheritance patterns, possibility of recombinations during meiosis.
Types of DNA Molecular markers
[edit]DNA molecular markers are DNA sequences that include at least two alleles and could be differentiated easily, which is adapted to locate specific positions in the genome during mapping.[8] By analysing the inheritance patterns of DNA molecular markers, genetic maps visualising gene positions and markers on the genome can be assembled.
Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms (RFLP)
[edit]Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms (RFLP) involves DNA restriction fragments with polymorphic restriction sites, which is processed by restriction enzymes by cutting DNA at specific recognition sites, hence it generates restriction fragments with variable lengths. Through investigating the inheritance pattern of RFLP, its position on the genome map can be determined. [1][8]
Single Sequence Length Polymorphisms (SSLP)
[edit]Single Sequence Length Polymorphisms (SSLP) indicate repeat sequences with variable length and number of tandem repeats, hence each SSLP can generate diverse variants. [1][8]It is further classified into microsatellites and minisatellites:
Minisatellites – Variable Number of Tandem Repeats (VNTRs) with longer repeat units, up to a maximum length of 25 base pairs.
Microsatellites – Simple Tandem Repeats (STRs) with shorter repeat units, typically in dinucleotide or tetranucleotide units.
Simple Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP)
[edit]Simple Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) indicates variations at specific positions in the genome, which have different nucleotides.[8]
Physical Mapping
[edit]Physical Mapping involves visualising the distance of restriction enzyme cleavage sites on chromosomal DNA, the measurement is based on the number of nucleotides for determining the size of DNA fragments. [8][9]Additionally, to determine gene positions and provide direct information of chromosomes, which aids the generation of physical maps.
Fluorescence In Situ Hybridisation (FISH)
[edit]Fluorescence In Situ Hybridisation (FISH) includes investigation of intact chromosomes through hybridisation by DNA sequences being labelled with fluorescence probes.[1][8]This method allows visualisation of specific positions of DNA sequences on chromosomes based on examining fluorescence signals and location of hybridisation by labelled DNA.
Sequence Tagged Site Mapping (STS)
[edit]Sequence Tagged Site Mapping (STS) uses Sequence Tagged Sites, which are DNA sequences that occur distinctly in the genome, with a length between 100 to 500 base pairs.[1][8]Additionally, it must have a known DNA sequence and its position in chromosome or genome must be unique, ensures there won't be any duplicated DNA present.[8] This method enables the generation of genome maps with great detail.
Restriction Mapping
[edit]Restriction mapping aims to locate restriction site position in DNA molecules, by comparing sizes of DNA fragments generated using different restriction enzymes which recognise different target sequences. [8]This method is important for locating non-polymorphic restriction sites and increasing the density of DNA markers on genome maps. [8]
Application
[edit]Disease diagnosis
[edit]Chromosome mapping can help identify the location of specific genes on chromosomes. It involves studying the inheritance patterns of genetic markers or variations within families or populations to determine the association between these markers and the presence of a particular disease or trait, allowing researchers to make predictions about the genes they think are causing the mutant phenotype.[10]An example of a disease where chromosome mapping has been instrumental is Cystic Fibrosis (CF). CF is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the CFTR gene located on chromosome 7. By mapping the CFTR gene to this specific region on chromosome 7 [11],researchers have been able to understand the genetic mechanisms of CF, and develop diagnostic tests by identifying related biomarkers. [12]
Pharmacogenomics
[edit]Chromosome mapping helps in identifying genes that are involved in drug metabolism, drug targets, or drug transporters.[13] By studying the inheritance patterns of genetic markers associated with drug response in different populations, researchers can identify regions on chromosomes that are likely to contain genes influencing drug response. This helps evaluating the effects and effectiveness of drugs. Moreover, mapping helps develop genetic tests that can predict an individual's response to specific medications. By analyzing genetic markers associated with drug response, researchers can identify how genetic differences contribute to the drug effectiveness.[14] Therefore, researchers can develop tests that assess the response of a particular drug of on patients based on their genetic profiles and whether they experience adverse reactions. This fosters the development of personalized medicine.
For example, Warfarin, a commonly prescribed anticoagulant, has been extensively studied in relation to genetic factors and chromosome mapping. Research has identified genetic variants associated with warfarin-related bleeding, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on chromosome 6.[15] Additionally, genes like VKORC1 on chromosome 16 have been strongly associated with warfarin dose variability, highlighting the role of genetic variations in determining individual responses to warfarin treatment.[16]
Limitation
[edit]Incomplete information
[edit]Firstly, for an individual homozygous at a gene, it is unknown whether it is inherited from maternity or paternity as the gene has the same locus on two homologous chromosomes. While for an individual heterozygous at a gene, the origin of allele is unknown without studying the individual’s parents’ genes as it could be from either maternal or paternal gene.[17]
Incomplete penetrance
[edit]In genetics, penetrance refers to the statistical occurrence of phenotypes given that one contains related genotypes.[18]For some genotypes, there may be reduced penetrance influenced by factors like age, environmental exposure or random chance. These factors may engender a delay of symptoms or even the gene will not be expressed in one’s life. [19]This makes the study on association between genes and complex traits more difficult and harder to conclude. Thus, statistical models and large sample sizes are required to overcome this challenge. [20]
