What is the most frequent trisomy at conception?
Trisom 16
A complete mole has how many chromosomes?
46, however they are all paternally derived
What chromosomes can be involved in Robertsonian translocations?
13, 14, 15, 21, 22 These are the acrocentric chromosomes.
Baby born with overlapping fingers and low-set ears, what is it like to be?
Trisomy 18 (Edward syndrome)
Baby born with cleft-lip, other midline defects, and mental retardation. What does it likely have?
Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome)
Baby born with mental retardation and polydactyly, what does it likely have?
Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome)
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)
cat cry child and preauricular tags. Name the disease.
Cri-du-chat, del 5p
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
Low IQ, large ears. Name the disese?
Fragile X syndrome
In fragile X syndrome, what is the trinucleotide repeat sequence on chromosome X?
CGG (200+)

-also, prominent forehead and jaw and large testes
Classic Ehlers-Danlos effects what specific protein?
Heritability?
Collagen types 1 and 5

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
What is the heritability of achondroplasia?
The majority of times, it is a new mutation.
Most common disease of new mutations
What isoform of Alpha-1 antitrypsin is disease forming?
The Z isoform
Velocardiofacial syndrome is a spectrum of what disorder and is caused by what cytogenetic abnormality?
DiGeorge syndrome
del 22q
What disease is most strongly associated with tetralogy of Fallot?

What genetic disease is caused by a mutation of the fibrillin 1 gene?
Marfan syndrome
In addition to a defect in the fibrillin 1 gene, what protein is increased in Marfan syndrome?
TGF-b - this cytokine regulates connective tissue growth. Further, a defect in TGF-b gives rise to Marfan syndrome 2.
