What's the difference between coinheritance and joint?

Coinheritance


Definition:

  • (n.) Joint inheritance.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) When the biochemical defect is unknown, a gene can be located only through molecular approaches based on coinheritance (genetic linkage) of the disease phenotype with a particular allele of a polymorphic DNA marker that has already been mapped to a specific chromosomal region.

  • (15) From coinheritance analysis of the ERCC-3 region in independent transformants, we deduce that the gene has a size of 35 to 45 kilobases, of which one essential segment has so far been refractory to cloning.
  • (16) Further modulation of the clinical course by the coinheritance of alpha-thalassemia-2 tends to decrease the risk of soft tissue organ failure but increases the risk of osteonecrosis.

  • (18) The coinheritance of alpha-thalassemia-2 further decreases the risk of major morbidity of the soft tissues but increases the risk of avascular necrosis of the bony skeleton.
  • (19) Determinants recognized to date as able to produce mild forms of beta-thalassemias, are beta-thalassemia mutations with a high residual output of beta-globin chain production, coinheritance of alpha-thalassemia or nondeletion HPFH linked or not linked to the beta-globin gene cluster, delta beta thalassemias and specific beta-globin haplotype.
  • (20) The coinheritance of alpha-thalassemia (alpha-thal) and sickle cell anemia provides a most interesting example of how separate globin gene mutations influence clinical manifestations of abnormal gene expression.
