    CM000680 ( FASTA) Chromosome 18 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans. People normally have two copies of this chromosome. Chromosome 18 spans about 80 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents about 2.5 percent of the total DNA in cells .

    1 per 5,000 births [3] Trisomy 18, also known as Edwards syndrome, is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of a third copy of all or part of chromosome 18. [3] Many parts of the body are affected. [3] Babies are often born small and have heart defects. [3] Other features include a small head, small jaw, clenched fists with overlapping ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome

    A chromosome is a package of DNA with part or all of the genetic material of an organism. In most chromosomes, the very long thin DNA fibers are coated with nucleosome -forming packaging proteins; in eukaryotic cells the most important of these proteins are the histones. These proteins, aided by chaperone proteins, bind to and condense the DNA ...

    D. capillifolius, D. sahariensis and D. syrticus are the other members of the genus with 2n = 18, whereas D. muricatus (2n = 20) and D. pusillus (2n = 22) have a slightly higher chromosome number. A few polyploid species as for example D. glochidiatus (2n = 4x = 44) and D. montanus (2n = 6x = 66) also exist.

    Neanderthal genetics. Genetic studies on Neanderthal ancient DNA became possible in the late 1990s. [1] The Neanderthal genome project, established in 2006, presented the first fully sequenced Neanderthal genome in 2013. Since 2005, evidence for substantial admixture of Neanderthal DNA in modern populations is accumulating.

    CD19. B-lymphocyte antigen CD19, also known as CD19 molecule ( C luster of D ifferentiation 19 ), B-Lymphocyte Surface Antigen B4, T-Cell Surface Antigen Leu-12 and CVID3 is a transmembrane protein that in humans is encoded by the gene CD19. [5] [6] In humans, CD19 is expressed in all B lineage cells.
