Combined use of bacterial artificial chromosomes-on-beads with karyotype detection improves prenatal diagnosis

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics, 2019
Background This study evaluated the individual and combined diagnostic performance of the bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs)-on-Beads (BoBs™) assay and conventional karyotyping for the prenatal detection of chromosomal abnormalities in pregnant ...

TMEM240 mutations cause spinocerebellar ataxia 21 with mental retardation and severe cognitive impairment [PDF]

open access: yesBrain - A Journal of Neurology , Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014, 137 (10), pp.2657-2663, 2020
Autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia corresponds to a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders that primarily affect the cerebellum. Here, we report the identification of the causative gene in spinocerebellar ataxia 21, an autosomal-dominant disorder previously mapped to chromosome 7p21.3-p15.1.

A paradigmatic autistic phenotype associated with loss of PCDH11Y and NLGN4Y genes

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2021
Background Most studies relative to Y chromosome abnormalities are focused on the sexual developmental disorders. Recently, a few studies suggest that some genes located on Y chromosome may be related to different neurodevelopment disorders.

A Rare Case of Early-diagnosed Trisomy 13 Syndrome with Typical Semilobar Holoprosencephaly, Cyclopia, and Proboscis: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Sciences
Trisomy 13 syndrome is a lethal chromosomal disorder characterized by severe congenital anomalies. We report a case of trisomy 13 syndrome with semilobar holoprosencephaly, cyclopia, proboscis, omphalocele, and an absent nasal bone, prenatally diagnosed ...

The Relationship between Skewed X-chromosome Inactivation and Neurological Disorders Development

open access: yesInternational Clinical Neuroscience Journal, 2016
X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) is a process by which one of the copies of the X chromosome in mammalian female cells is inactivated. The XCI causes a balanced X-linked gene quantity between male and females; moreover, it results mosaic females which ...

Deep Anomaly Generation: An Image Translation Approach of Synthesizing Abnormal Banded Chromosome Images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Advances in deep-learning-based pipelines have led to breakthroughs in a variety of microscopy image diagnostics. However, a sufficiently big training data set is usually difficult to obtain due to high annotation costs. In the case of banded chromosome images, the creation of big enough libraries is difficult for multiple pathologies due to the rarity

Large scale chromosome folding is stable against local changes in chromatin structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Characterizing the link between small-scale chromatin structure and large-scale chromosome folding during interphase is a prerequisite for understanding transcription. Yet, this link remains poorly investigated. Here, we introduce a simple biophysical model where interphase chromosomes are described in terms of the folding of chromatin sequences ...

Information Measures for Long-Range Correlated Sequences: the Case of the 24 Human Chromosome Sequences [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports vol. 3, Article number: 2721 (2013), 2013
A new approach to estimate the Shannon entropy of a long-range correlated sequence is proposed. The entropy is written as the sum of two terms corresponding respectively to power-law (\emph{ordered}) and exponentially (\emph{disordered}) distributed blocks (clusters).
