The following is a list of genetic disorders and if known, type of mutation and for the chromosome involved. Although the parlance "disease-causing gene" is common, it is the occurrence of an abnormality in the parents that causes the impairment to develop within the child.
Chromosomal deletion syndrome; Chromosome 5q deletion syndrome; Chronic fatigue syndrome; Chronic functional abdominal pain; Chronic infantile neurologic cutaneous and articular syndrome; Chronic Lyme disease; Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome; Churg–Strauss syndrome; Chédiak–Higashi syndrome; Claude's syndrome; Clinically ...
The smallest single base deletion mutations occur by a single base flipping in the template DNA, followed by template DNA strand slippage, within the DNA polymerase active site. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Deletions can be caused by errors in chromosomal crossover during meiosis , which causes several serious genetic diseases .
The three major single-chromosome mutations: deletion (1), duplication (2) and inversion (3). The two major two-chromosome mutations: insertion (1) and translocation (2). When the chromosome's structure is altered, this can take several forms: [16] Deletions: A portion of the chromosome is missing or has been deleted.
Chromosomal deletion syndromes result from deletion of parts of chromosomes. Depending on the location, size, and whom the deletion is inherited from, there are a few known different variations of chromosome deletions. Chromosomal deletion syndromes typically involve larger deletions that are visible using karyotyping techniques.
Monosomy 9p (also known as Alfi's Syndrome, 9p Minus or simply 9P-) is a rare chromosomal disorder in which some DNA is missing or has been deleted on the short arm region, "p", of one copy of chromosome 9 (9p22.2-p23).
An example of this type of system is the 22q Deletion Clinic at SickKids Hospital in Toronto, Canada, which provides children with 22q11 deletion syndrome ongoing support, medical care and information from a team of health care workers. [54] Metirosine (methyltyrosine) is used as an off-label treatment for DiGeorge syndrome. [55]
