Henry Turner. Turner syndrome (TS), also known as 45,X, or 45,X0, is a genetic disorder in which a females cells have only one X chromosome or are partially missing an X chromosome (sex chromosome monosomy) leading to the complete or partial deletion of the pseudoautosomal regions (PAR1, PAR2) in the affected X chromosome. [ 2 ][ 6 ][ 7 ] Most ...
Monosomy. Schematic karyogram of a human, showing the normal diploid karyotype. It shows annotated bands and sub-bands as used for the nomenclature of chromosome abnormalities including partial monosomies. It shows 22 homologous chromosomes, both the female (XX) and male (XY) versions of the sex chromosome (bottom right), as well as the ...
Duchenne muscular dystrophy. P – Point mutation, or any insertion/deletion entirely inside one gene. D – Deletion of a gene or genes. Dup - Duplication of a gene or genes. C – Whole chromosome extra, missing, or both (see chromosome abnormality) T – Trinucleotide repeat disorders: gene is extended in length.
Aneuploidy is the presence of an abnormal number of chromosomes in a cell, for example a human cell having 45 or 47 chromosomes instead of the usual 46. [ 1 ][ 2 ] It does not include a difference of one or more complete sets of chromosomes. A cell with any number of complete chromosome sets is called a euploid cell.
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 ]
An Arizona woman set to graduate from a master's program this week was fatally shot in what authorities say was a murder-suicide by her ex-boyfriend. Monet Newton, 24, was found dead in a Glendale ...
18p-, also known as monosomy 18p, deletion 18p syndrome, del(18p) syndrome, partial monosomy 18p, or de Grouchy syndrome 1, is a genetic condition caused by a deletion of all or part of the short arm (the p arm) of chromosome 18. It occurs in about 1 of every 50,000 births.
