4 Hardy Weinberg Law Consider 2 alleles (,a) with frequency llele frequency of = llele frequency of a = q = 1- Randomly-mating large diloid oulation with no mutation, migration, selection and drift Genotye a aa Hardy- Weinberg Frequency 2 2q q 2

6 Mean Relative Fitness of Poulation 2 mean fitness = w = w + 2qw + a q 2 w aa mean relative fitness = w = w w w 2 = 1 2qhs q s w "1 Genetic Load = L = 1- w 0 " L "1

7 Heterozygous advantage h=0 dominant, a recessive h=1 recessive, a dominant 0<h<1 incomlete dominance h<0 overdominance h>1 underdominance h determines the equilibrium allele frequency s determines how fast the equilibrium is achieved

8 Fundamental Theorem of Natural Selection R. Fisher, 1958 Change of mean fitness is roortional to additive genetic variance w' w = qs 2w 2 w ' =fitness in next generation

9 Tyes of selection Directional selection (0<h<1) causes to go to 1 conventional Darwinian natural selection alancing selection (h<0) cause to go to some equilibrium value e e.g. heterozygous variant of H gene confers resistance to malaria athogen (Plasmodium falciarum) Disrutive selection (h>1) if < e then goes to 0 if > e then goes to 1

10 Examle of human directional selection P C Sabeti et al. Science 2006;312: The FY * O allele in the romotor gene of Duffy antigen gene, which confers resistance to Plasmodium vivax malaria, is revalent and even fixed in many frican oulations

11 What about drift? Very imortant in small oulations. Deends on relative ratios of s and 1/2N e.g. allele has a selective advantage over allele a with selection coefficient s w w aa = 1 s In an initial oulation entirely consisting of aa genotyes, robability of new mutant fixing In an initial oulation entirely consisting of genotyes, robability of new mutant a fixing = 1 1 e e e e s = 2Ns s 2Ns 1 1 > 0 Therefore, even deleterious alleles can fixate in a small oulation!

12 Detecting Natural Selection in the Human Genome e.g. McDonald- Kreitman test e.g. Tajima D test P C Sabeti et al. Science 2006;312: Choice of selection test deends on the time scale of evolution

13 HPLOTYPE STUDIES

14 Halotye Ø Sequence of contiguous SNP alleles on a chromatid Ø Hard to determine directly across whole genome Ø Usually only the genotyes are rovided, giving ambiguous halotyes Ø Halotyes usually inferred ( hased ) by statistical comutation Ø Newer exerimental methods can directly hase halotyes, but are costly

16 Linkage Disequilibrium Ø Linkage Disequilibrium (LD) = correlation of nucleotide alleles at different loci across the oulation l On average, there is strong LD between nearby alleles on the same chromosome Ø Linkage Equilibrium = random association (indeendence) of alleles at different loci across the oulation Ø LD reflects many factors of oulation history Ø LD ermits us to use roxy SNPs as diagnostic biomarkers for disease-causing mutations

17 Poulation history and SNP correlations Present day chromosomes Mutations occurring at various times of oulation history Neutral mutation Disease mutation resent time ast

20 Quantifying linkage disequilibrium Ø From the oulation halotye frequencies we can calculate the correlations between SNPs. Ø Commonly used LD summaries l D l Lewontin s D l r 2

21 Halotye frequencies Halotye with 2 SNPs /a /b LOCUS 2 llele llele b Totals llele b LOCUS 1 llele a a ab a Totals b 1.0

22 Linkage Equilibrium definition ) )(1 (1 ) (1 ) (1 b a ab a a b b = = = = Random association of alleles Exected for SNPs at distant loci

23 Linkage Disequilibrium definition ) )(1 (1 ) (1 ) (1 b a ab a a b b Non-random association of alleles Exected for SNPs at nearby loci

24 LD measure : D Deviation from linkage equilibrium D = Thus it can be shown that all 4 of the 2-SNP halotye frequencies can be exressed in terms of D, and only. i.e., a b ab = + D = (1 ) D = (1 ) D = (1 )(1 ) + D Note also, D = ab b a

25 LD measure : Lewontin s D Normalized version of D: D ' = D D max where D max is given by D = max min[ min[ b,, a a b ] ] if D>0 if D<0 D ranges between -1 and 1 directly related to recombination fraction D=0 if linkage equilibrium D =1 if only 2 or 3 halotyes are resent out of the ossible 4 D uwardly biased in small samles

26 LD measure : r 2 Square of the correlation coefficient r 2 = D a 2 b ranges between 0 and 1 useful in association maing r 2 =0 if linkage equilibrium r 2 =1 if only 2 halotyes are resent roortional to mutual information between 2 loci when D small

27 Factors affecting Linkage Disequilibrium Increases LD Ø Finite Samling (Drift) Ø Demograhic bottleneck Ø Selection Ø Emigration Decreases LD Ø Immigration Ø Recombination decreases number (or variability) of halotyes increases number (or variability) of halotyes

28 How does LD decay over time? Ø Recombination reduces correlation between SNPs Halotye frequencies at time t P a a b b P b P a P ab

29 Decay of linkage disequilibrium in large oulation Ø The frequency of in the new generation (time t+1) will deend on the frequencies of, a, and b in the old generation (time t) and also the recombination rate, c t+ 1 = = = (1 (1 t c) c) t t cd t + + c c t ( t t D ) t Therefore, D t+ 1 = D t (1 c) D t+ n = D t (1 c) n D t ex( cn) (at large times)
