Question

Parkinson’s disease is a brain disorder that may be caused by mutations in several genes that code for the production of alpha-synuclein. Individuals who have Parkinson’s disease exhibit symptoms such as uncontrollable tremors, difficulty walking, and loss of coordination. How might geneticists determine where the mutations that cause Parkinson’s disease are located? PCR analysis gene mapping DNA fingerprinting STR analysis

Answer 1

They could use SNPs(Single nucleotide polymorphisms) of DNA, which are an anaylysis of chromosomes using high tech laser magnification. This SNPing allows scientist to more closely view specific genes in chromosomes that cause certain traits. It allows for a greater genetic mapping and could also be used to see mutations, if you know which chromosome to look at.

IDK, just an idea, SNPs were used to look at different species trait exhibition, I thought it might work for this if used properly.

Answer 2

B) gene mapping
