Deletion mutations can cause a variety of serious genetic diseases or harmless mutations, depending on the size of the deletion or genes affected. Five examples of deletion mutation The following are five serious conditions that can be caused by deletion mutations: DiGeorge syndrome Caused by the d...
IT is a striking fact that in many inherited human pathological conditions more than one type of inheritance is found. To quote only two examples, retinitis pigmentosa may be either dominant or recessive, and congenital stationary night blindness may be dominant, recessive, or sex-linked.1In a ...
2003 Inheritance, biochemical abnormalities, and clinical features of feline mucolipidosis II: the first animal model of human I-cell disease. J Hered. 94(5):363-73. Mucolipidosis II (ML II), also called I-cell disease, is a unique lysosomal storage disease caused by deficient activity of...
Hundreds of thousands of genetic variants have been reported to cause severe monogenic diseases, but the probability that a variant carrier develops the disease (termed penetrance) is unknown for virtually all of them. Additionally, the clinical utility
Turner's syndrome A syndrome in females where they are missing one of their two X chromosomes. Carnitine Deficiency A condition which can have symptoms similar to Reye's Syndrome. It can be caused by genetic factors.
For example during cryopreservation the callus cells experience stress caused by exposure to a complex of various factors, which may induce free radical formation and provide conditions for the appearance of genetic changes. ISSR and retrotransposon-microsatellite amplified polymorphism (REMAP) markers were...

Adult children felt that the lack of communication about a genetic condition that resulted in the death of a sibling caused difficulties for the families' mourning and often protracted it. These experiences sometimes affected the siblings' future reproductive choices; girls, particularly, did not ...
Fragile X syndrome is caused by a CGG repeat expansion in theFMR1gene on the X chromosome. Different counts of the repeat have different phenotypic outcomes (Table 4). Healthy individuals typically have fewer than 45 CGG repeats, while those who may be unaffected carriers or have associated diso...
