    Turner syndrome is a genetic condition caused by the absence of all or parts of the second sex chromosome. This condition only affects women and girls because the X-chromosome is missing or partially missing or rearranged. X-chromosome monosomy, X-chromosome mosaicism, and X-chromosome defects are common causes of the absence or alterations of the X-chromosome. Monosomy X occurs in about half of the girls with Turner syndrome. This means that each cell in each of their bodies has only one copy…

    have a shorter life than than most people. Another variation of Down Syndrome, although not as common, deals with the translocation of genes between chromosome #14 and chromosome #21.This is deleterious because all the chromosome pairs shown in a karyotype normally have the same length, staining pattern, and centromere position. However, with this translation, either Chromes #14 or 21 will be extra long or extra…

    cells they are and can be used to see if the lymphocytes in a sample of blood contain CLL cells. It can also find CLL in bone marrow or other fluids. If a patient has more than 5,000/mm3 of CLL cells in the blood they more than likely have it. 6 The karyotype of someone with CLL can be used to see three deletions of 13, 11, or 17. 6 If chromosome 17 is partly deleted there is a poor outlook and other less common chromosome changes include trisomy 12 (extra copy) or a translocation between 11 and…

    Population Equilibrium of the AUG Sequence in the PV92 Region. Abstract – Alu sequences are found throughout the karyotype of humans and new world primates. Newer sequences that are roughly around one million years old can used to analyze human history since they are not yet stable in the population. One of these sequences that are still evolving is the Alu sequence on the PV92 region of chromosome 16. In this experiment we analyzed 29 individuals at Cameron University to find out how frequent…

    syndrome is by hormone testing- Blood and urine samples can reveal abnormal hormone levels that are signs of klinefelter. And by chromosome analysis- a blood sample is sent to the lab to check the shape and number of chromosomes which is also known as karyotype analysis. There is a small percentage of males that are diagnosed with klinefelter syndrome before birth. It might be identified after a pregnant woman has a procedure to examine fetal cells that are drawn from the amniotic…

    Klinefelter’s: Stories Needing to be Told Klinefelter’s syndrome affects 1 in every 600 males. Yet, surprisingly, it is often regarded as the “forgotten syndrome.” This is because after being discovered over 70 years ago by Dr. Harry Klinefelter, there are still many cases that go undiagnosed and many males that go untreated. This is due to a lack of public awareness about Klinefelter’s, a disease that everyone can be knowledgeable about when it is presented on an engaging platform such as TedEd…
