What chromosome is gene located for marfan syndrome?
The gene associated with Marfan syndrome is located on chromosome 15. It is called the FBN1 gene, which provides instructions for making a protein called fibrillin-1. Mutations in this gene can lead to the characteristic features of Marfan syndrome.

If Rett syndrome is a chromosomal abnormality what is the abnormality?
Rett syndrome is not primarily caused by a chromosomal abnormality, but rather a genetic mutation in the MECP2 gene located on the X chromosome. This gene provides instructions for making a protein that is important for brain development. Mutations in the MECP2 gene disrupt the production of this protein, leading to the characteristic features of Rett syndrome.
