Unequal crossing over during Prophase I can result in one sister chromosome with a deletion and another with a duplication. A mutated form of hemoglobin, known as hemoglobin Lepore, is known in the human population. Hemoglobin Lepore has a deleted set of amino acids. If it was caused by unequal crossing over, what would be an expected consequence?

The diagram below shows the F factor and a portion of the E. coli chromosome that has three different insertion sequences (IS) of the same type as is carried on F.

                     

Describe the three different Hfrs (Hfr #1, Hfr #2 and Hfr #3) that can be formed by recombination between the IS on F and each of the IS sequences on the chromosome. Some including the positions of each of the markers (A, B, C, and D) and state which of these markers would be transferred early?
