  2. 1p36 deletion syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1p36_deletion_syndrome

    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 ...

  4. Chromosomal deletion syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosomal_deletion_syndrome

    With an incidence of 1 in 15,000 to 1 in 50,000 live births, it is suggested to be one of the most common contiguous gene deletion disorders. 5p deletions are most common de novo occurrences, which are paternal in origin in 80–90% of cases, possibly arising from chromosome breakage during gamete formation in males [citation needed]

  5. Chromosome 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_1

    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 ]

  6. 2p15-16.1 microdeletion syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2p15-16.1_microdeletion...

    2p15-16.1 microdeletion is an extremely rare genetic disorder caused by a small deletion in the short arm of human chromosome 2. First described in two patients in 2007, [ 1 ] by 2013 only 21 [ citation needed ] people have been reported as having the disorder in the medical literature .

  7. GLUT1 deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GLUT1_deficiency

    The GLUT1 protein that transports glucose across the blood brain barrier is encoded by the SLC2A1 gene, located on chromosome 1. [8] In GLUT1 deficiency syndrome, one of the two genes is damaged by a mutation and an insufficient amount protein is made. As a result, insufficient glucose is passing the blood brain barrier.

  8. Chromosome No. 1 syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_No._1_syndrome

    Chromosome No. 1 Syndrome is a genetic defect observed in embryos of newts from the genus Triturus. Approximately half of the eggs laid fail to develop, as their growth halts at a certain stage, leading to the death of the embryos. Surviving embryos always possess two distinct forms of chromosome 1, differing in length.

  9. 1q21.1 deletion syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1q21.1_deletion_syndrome

    1q21.1 deletion syndrome is a rare aberration of chromosome 1. A human cell has one pair of identical chromosomes on chromosome 1. With the 1q21.1 deletion syndrome, one chromosome of the pair is not complete, because a part of the sequence of the chromosome is missing. One chromosome has the normal length and the other is too short.
