Figure 1: Hybrid-state model of translocation and experimental design. In the experiments described above, we could not resolve the first (counterclockwise) step from the second (clockwise) step of ...

Abnormalities in the structure of chromosomes within someone’s genetic makeup are called structural chromosomal abnormalities. Robertsonian translocations are very rare structural chromosomal ...

Rare genetic variants of large effect can help elucidate the pathophysiology of brain disorders. Here we expand the clinical and genetic analyses of a family with a (1;11)(q42;q14.3) translocation ...

Translocations, in genetics, happen when chromosomes break and the pieces attach to other chromosomes. This mixing of genetic material has important results. The resultant chromosomes are lacking in ...

Leukemia is an umbrella term for multiple different cancers that form in the blood, one such member of the leukemia family being chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). CML is caused by a chromosomal ...

Researchers at Kumamoto University have uncovered a previously unknown molecular mechanism by which human T-cell leukemia ...
