Is marfan syndrome carried on the x or y chromosome or both?
Marfan syndrome is typically inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning that a mutation in a single copy of the gene is enough to cause the disorder. It is not specifically located on the X or Y chromosome.
Famous people who have triple x syndrome?
There are no famous individuals known to have Triple X syndrome (also called Trisomy X). Triple X syndrome is a genetic condition that affects females where they have an extra X chromosome (XXY) instead of the typical XX combination. It is a relatively rare condition and may often go undiagnosed.
What happens if a female with Turner Syndrome has the X chromosome inactivated?
If a female with Turner Syndrome inactivates the X chromosome that carries the Turner Syndrome genetic material, she may develop a condition called mosaicism. This can result in a less severe presentation of Turner Syndrome symptoms, as some cells in her body will have the typical number of X chromosomes. However, the exact impact can vary widely among individuals.
Which of the following are example(s) of trisomy---Turner Syndrome Down's Syndrome or Klinefelter's Syndrome?
Trisomy means having three copies of a chromosomes. Turner's syndrome is NOT an example of trisomy. Someone with Turner's syndrome has only one X chromosome. Down's syndrome IS an example of trisomy. Someone with Down's syndrome has 3 copies of chromosome 21. Klinefelter's syndrome is a tricky one. On one hand, it would be considered trisomy because they have 3 sex chromosomes. However, they are not all the SAME sex chromosomes. Someone with Klinefelter's has 2 X chromosomes and one Y chromosome.
What is the prevalence and clinical significance of monosomy X mosaicism in individuals with Turner syndrome?
Monosomy X mosaicism is a rare genetic condition where some cells in the body have only one X chromosome instead of the usual two. In individuals with Turner syndrome, this condition can occur and may have clinical significance. The prevalence of monosomy X mosaicism in Turner syndrome is not well established, but it can impact the severity and symptoms of the syndrome. It may lead to a more variable presentation of Turner syndrome, with some individuals experiencing more severe symptoms than others.
Is marfan syndrome carried on the x or y chromosome or both?
Marfan syndrome is typically inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning that a mutation in a single copy of the gene is enough to cause the disorder. It is not specifically located on the X or Y chromosome.
Is marfan syndrome x linked?
I think it's dominant because when you have sex you are sharing your love.
Why are x-rays taken of the spines of children with Marfan syndrome?
The child's spine should be x rayed in order to measure the extent of scoliosis or kyphosis.
What chromosome is affected by Marfan syndrome?
Since the traits for hemophilia are carried on the X chromosome and not the Y, it is more probable for females to have a chromosome with the mutation. Since the mutation is considered recessive and males only have one X chromosome, they are more likely to portray the phenotype for hemophilia than their female counterparts.
By what other names is fragile X syndrome known?
also known as Martin-Bell syndrome, Marker X syndrome, and FRAXA syndrome
What is the scientific name for Fragile x syndrome?
Martin Bell Syndrome.
What cause fragile X syndrome?
The fragile X syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by mutation of the FMR1 gene on the X chromosome.
How do you calculate the integral dose?
mean dose x mass = integral dose
Is Turner's syndrome the same as triple x syndrome?
No, they are two different things. Normally, a woman has 46 X chromozomes. If there are only 45 of them, it´s the Monozomy X, so called Turner syndrome. If there are 47 of them, it´s the Trizomy X, also known as the Triple X syndrome.
Does fragile X get worse?
No, fragile x syndrome is not progressive
Is klinefelters syndrome autosomal or x- linked?
X-linked
What is the more common name of monosomy X?
Turner syndrome or Ullrich-Turner syndrome.
