Microdeletions, Microduplications and Contiguous Gene Disorders Flashcards
________ ________ __________ is a small segment of extra or missing DNA
copy number variation (CNV)
_________ is 0 or 1 copy of the region
deletion (loss)
__________ is 3 or more copies of the region
duplication (gain)
_________ deletions/duplications are 3-5 Mb and can be seen on a karyotype
classic
___________ are smaller than 3 Mb and can be detected by FISH, CMA etc
microdeletions
___________ is when one copy of the gene is not sufficient
haploinsufficiency
_________________ is when three copies of the gene is too much
triplosensitivity
Are deletions or duplications more likely to be pathogenic?
deletions
___________/_________________ _____________ are disorders due to the deletion or duplication of two or more genes located in proximity to each other
Microdeletion/duplication syndromes
_____________(acronym) causes 10-22% of structural rearrangements
Interchromosomal – between homologs
Intrachromosomal – between sister chromatids
Intrachromatid – within the same chromosome
NAHR- non-allelic homologous recombination
- repetitive sequences
