1p36 deletion syndrome is caused by the deletion of the most distal light band of the short arm of chromosome 1. [5] Human chromosome 1. The breakpoints for 1p36 deletion syndrome have been variable and are most commonly found from 1p36.13 to 1p36.33. 40 percent of all breakpoints occur 3 to 5 million base pairs from the telomere. The size of ...
The chromosomal basis of Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) consists of a deletion of the most terminal portion of the short arm of chromosome 4. The deleted segment of reported individuals represent about one half of the p arm, occurring distal to the bands 4p15.1-p15.2.
Chromosome 1A has a large duplication of regions labeled 6–8, accompanied by a small deletion of region 3. In contrast, chromosome 1B has a large deletion of regions 6–8 with a duplication of a small region 3 (such deletions in a monozygotic state would be lethal).

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. Known disorders in humans include Wolf–Hirschhorn syndrome, which is caused by partial deletion of the short arm of ...
Chromosome 6 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans. People normally have two copies of this chromosome. People normally have two copies of this chromosome. Chromosome 6 spans nearly 171 million base pairs (the building material of DNA ) and represents between 5.5 and 6% of the total DNA in cells .
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). [1] [2] This deletion either happens de novo or as a result of a parent having the chromosome abnormality. [3]
Chromosome 1 is the designation for the largest human chromosome. Humans have two copies of chromosome 1, as they do with all of the autosomes , which are the non- sex chromosomes . Chromosome 1 spans about 249 million nucleotide base pairs , which are the basic units of information for DNA . [ 4 ]
