Unreferenced date December 2009 A null allele is a mutant allele copy of a gene that completely lacks that gene s normal function. This can be the result of the complete absence of the gene product protein, RNA at the molecular level, or the expression of a non functional gene product. At the phenotype phenotypic level, a null allele is indistinguishable from a deletion of the entire locus genetics locus . A mutant allele that produces no protein is called a protein null shown by Western blot western analysis , and one that produces no RNA is called an RNA null shown by Northern blot Northern analysis or by DNA sequencing of a deletion allele . A genetic null or Muller s morphs amorph ic allele has the same phenotype when homozygous as when heterozygous with a deficiency that disrupts the locus in question. A genetic null allele can be a protein and RNA null, but can also express normal levels of a gene product that is non functional due to mutation. Another definition of null allele concerning molecular markers, refers to such a marker in the case it can no longer be detected because of a mutation.

In other words, it is the number of copies of a particular allele divided ... . It can be expressed for example as a percentage . In population genetics , allele frequencies are used ... species, which contain two sets of chromosomes different alleles of the gene exist one allele exists in a copies then the allele frequency is the fraction or percentage of all the occurrences of that locus that is occupied by a given allele and the frequency of one of the alleles is a n N . For example, if the frequency of an allele is 20 in a given population, then among population members, one in five chromosomes will carry that allele. Four out of five will be occupied by other variant s of the gene. Note that for diploid genes the fraction of individuals that carry this allele may be nearly two in five 36 . The reason for this is that if the allele distributes random ly, then the binomial theorem will apply 32 of the population will be heterozygous for the allele i.e. carry one copy of that allele and one copy of another in each somatic cell and 4 will be homozygous carrying two copies of the allele . Together, this means that 36 of diploid individuals would be expected to carry an allele that has a frequency of 20 .

An allele specific oligonucleotide ASO is a short piece of synthetic DNA complementary to the sequence of a variable target DNA. It acts as a Hybridization probe probe for the presence of the target in a Southern blot assay or, more commonly, in the simpler Dot blot assay. It is a common tool used in genetic testing , forensics , and Molecular Biology research. An ASO is typically an oligonucleotide of 15&ndash 21 nucleotide nucleotide bases in length. It is designed and used in a way that makes it specific for only one version, or allele , of the DNA being tested. The length of the ASO, which strand it is chosen from, and the conditions by which it is Nucleic acid hybridization bound to and washed from the target DNA all play a role in its specificity. These probes can usually be designed to detect a difference of as little as 1 base in the target s genetic sequence, a basic ability in the assay of single nucleotide polymorphism s SNPs , important in genotype genotype analysis and the Human Genome Project .

Multiple issues orphan February 2009 cleanup May 2007 unreferenced October 2009 Allele s that cause an organism to die only when present in homozygous condition are called lethal alleles . The gene involved is considered an essential gene. When Mendel s Laws were rediscovered, geneticist s believed that mutation s would only alter the appearance of a living organism. However, it was discovered that a mutant allele could cause death. When an essential gene is mutated, it can result in a lethal phenotype . If the mutation is caused by a dominant lethal allele, the heterozygote for the allele will show the lethal phenotype, the homozygote dominant is impossible. If the mutation is caused by a recessive lethal allele, the homozygote for the allele will have the lethal phenotype.
