Locally acting polymorphisms
QuickTime™ and aTIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
Polymorphism responsible for mRNA difference is at the locus of the gene itself
~25% of varying mRNAs are caused by locally acting polymorphism
Nonlocal polymorphisms

Why would aggregates result in so many novel abilities and traits??
Apparently does not happen in Alzheimer’s…

What do you conclude?A. Sup35 does not cause resistance
to paraquat.B. Prions do not cause resistance to
paraquat.C. Aggregation is not necessary to
cause resistance to paraquat.D. Aggregation is not sufficient to
cause resistance to paraquat.

Aggregates per se don’t cause resistance.

Aggregates per se don’t cause resistance.Losing function of sup35 does.

Genetic effects?
Phenotypes varied between genetically diverse PSI+ strains.
How can the cause be genetic and non-genetic (protein aggregates) at the same time?

Aggregation = more read-through
UTR mutations usually occur and have no effect, so organism doesn’t die and allele is maintained.
Aggregation = more read-through
UTR mutations usually occur and have no effect, so organism doesn’t die and allele is maintained.Now in PSI+, they manifest!
Aggregation = more read-through
Sequence differences in read-through region cause phenotypic differences between PSI+ strains.
