|
Turner syndrome results in spontaneous abortion 99% of the time. Which parent does the chromosome usually come from whether viable or not?
|
Paternal (because the X and Y don't pair well)
|
|

|
|
Prader-Willi syndrome is caused by a uniparental disomy of what gene (chromosome) and from what parent?
|
A gene on chromosome 15. The child has 2 maternal copies and no paternal copies. Note: the syndrome is more commonly caused by a del of the paternal 15.
|
|
Angelman syndrome is caused by a uniparental disomy of what gene (chromosome) and from which parent?
|
The UPD is a double copy of the paternal gene on 15. Only 3% of angelman cases are uniparental disomy (UPD).
|
|
What is the most common cause of Prader-Willi syndromes?
|
Prader-Willi- del 15 of paternal gene and silence (imprinting /methylation) of the maternal.
Note- uniparental disomy (2 maternal 15's)--> 15% of cases |
|
What is the most common cause of Angelman syndrome?
|
Del 15 of the maternal gene along with silence (imprinting /methylation) of the pateral 15. Note- uniparental disomy (2 parental 15's) only accounts for 3% of cases
|

Autosomal Dominant -point mutation leading to instability of collagen despite on good copy |
|
What is the heritability of Huntington disease?
|
Autosomal Dominant
Trinucleotide repeat |
|
How does Huntington disease cause disease?
|
The trinucleotide repeat causes the protein to become insoluble thus building up in neurons and causing cell death
|
