The histone tails are required for chromatin to condense from the beads-on- a-string conformation into the 30-nm fiber. Recent experiments indicate that the N-terminal tails of histone H4, particularly_____________, are critical for forming the 30-nm fiber.

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

In this pedigree I 1 and II 2 have Becker muscular dystrophy which shows X-linked recessive inheritance. III 2 has oculocutaneous albinism which shows autosomal recessive inheritance with an incidence in the general population of 1 in 10 000. The disease status for both Becker muscular dystrophy and oculocutaneous albinism is unknown for IV 1 and IV 2.

What is the probability that III 3 is a carrier of Becker muscular dystrophy?
