Ectrodactyly, also known as split hand/split foot malformation, is primarily caused by genetic mutations that affect limb development. It is often associated with mutations in specific genes such as the EDA gene and can be inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. This condition results in the absence or malformation of fingers or toes, leading to characteristic "claw-like" limbs. Thus, ectrodactyly is classified as a developmental mutation affecting the morphology of the digits.
What else can I help you with?
Is lobster claw syndrome dominant or recessive?
Lobster claw syndrome, or Ectrodactyly, is a rare genetic condition caused by a mutation in the TP63 gene, which is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. This means that only one copy of the mutated gene is needed to display the syndrome.
What type of mutation is depicted here?
I'm sorry, but I cannot see any images or specifics related to the mutation you're referring to. If you describe the mutation or provide details, I can help identify the type of mutation, such as point mutation, insertion, deletion, or frameshift.
In what type of mutation is one base left out?
A one base left out mutation is called a deletion mutation. This type of mutation involves the loss of one or more nucleotides from a DNA sequence, which can lead to a frameshift mutation if not in multiples of three.
Mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called?
Point Mutation is the mutation that involves a single or few nucleotide. This type of mutation replaces a single nucleotide to another.
What is the type of mutation that shifts the reading frame of the genetic message by inserting or deleting a nucleotide?
A frame-shift mutation.
What is the type of mutation that causes hemophilia?
There is no single type of mutation that causes Hemophilia A. It is not the type of mutation but rather the location of the mutation within the genetic code.
What type of mutation is albinism?
It is a mutation/
Is translocation a type of mutation?
chromosomal mutation
what type of mutation occurs when a nucleotide is left out?
deletion mutation
Is lobster claw syndrome dominant or recessive?
Lobster claw syndrome, or Ectrodactyly, is a rare genetic condition caused by a mutation in the TP63 gene, which is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. This means that only one copy of the mutated gene is needed to display the syndrome.
A mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called a(an)?
Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.
What type of mutation is depicted here?
I'm sorry, but I cannot see any images or specifics related to the mutation you're referring to. If you describe the mutation or provide details, I can help identify the type of mutation, such as point mutation, insertion, deletion, or frameshift.
What is the type of mutation that causes crohn's disease?
A frameshift mutation in the CARD15 gene
In what type of mutation is one base left out?
A one base left out mutation is called a deletion mutation. This type of mutation involves the loss of one or more nucleotides from a DNA sequence, which can lead to a frameshift mutation if not in multiples of three.
Mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called?
Point Mutation is the mutation that involves a single or few nucleotide. This type of mutation replaces a single nucleotide to another.
If the two middle toes on a foot are fused together is that ectrodactyly?
No, the fusion of the two middle toes is not indicative of ectrodactyly. Ectrodactyly, also known as lobster claw deformity, is a more severe condition where there is a missing or cleft hand or foot due to a congenital malformation. Fusion of toes may be due to other causes.
What is the type of mutation that causes Digeorge syndrome?
Deletion Mutation causes DiGeorges Syndrome.
