Chromosomal Abnormalities PT2 Flashcards
exchange of material between 2 diff chromosomes which invole NO LOSS/GAIN of chrom material
reciprocal translocatio
participating chrom (ACROcentric) break at their centromere; LONG ARMS FUSE = single large chromosome
ROBERTSONIAN TRANSLOCATION
Robertsonian Translocation: what “arms” are lost?
p arm
Loss of a portion of a chromosome
deletion
Extra piece of a chromosome
duplication
PORTION of 1 chromosome is DELETEDfrom
its normal place & INSERTED into a region of another chromosome
INSERTION
FRAGMENTATION of a chromosome followed by
RECONSTITUTION w/ a section inverted
INVERSION
Centromere is WITHIN the loop = included
PERIcentric inversion
Centromere OUTSIDE loop = not inc.
PARAcentric
Division of chromosome at centromere TRANSVERSELY
ISOCHROMOSOMES
Chromosome w/ identical parts; Upper arm is the same w/ the lower arm
ISOCHROMOSOMES
Aberrant chromosome whose STICKY ENDS have
fused together forming a ring = removed telomeres
RING CHROMOSOMES
Baby can’t recognize the mother
Delayed motor development = can’t support head
mental retardation
delayed puberty
klinefelter syndrome and turner syndrome
abnormal features
(CCLSM)
coarse facie
clinodactyly
low set ears
simian crease
mongoloid eyes
most common chromosomal aberration
down syndrome
down syndrome karyotype
