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.

EGFR-mutation positive non-small cell lung cancer. Skin reactions, diarrhoea, dehydration, haemorrhage, interstitial lung disease (uncommon), pancreatitis (uncommon), hepatitis (uncommon), allergy (uncommon), hepatic failure (rare), toxic epidermal necrolysis (rare) and Stevens–Johnson syndrome (rare). Imatinib: PO: Bcr-Abl kinase inhibitor.
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.
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 .
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 problem with rare diseases. A genetic mutation disease like HNRNPH2, estimated at about 150 cases globally, lacks enough patients to make finding a cure profitable for pharmaceutical companies ...
Koolen–De Vries syndrome (KdVS), also known as 17q21.31 microdeletion syndrome, is a rare genetic disorder caused by a deletion of a segment of chromosome 17 which contains six genes. This deletion syndrome was discovered independently in 2006 by three different research groups. [1] [2] [3] [4]
