The chromosome is composed of two main molecules. a) DNA b) Proteins called histones. This image was taken shortly after DNA a replication but before the prophase. It is composed of two daughter chromatids joined at the centromere. The chromosome is super coiled by a factor around x16‚000. The DNA molecule is about 1

disorders concurs together. Genetic etiologies contributes to their occurrence in large extent. The genetic etiologies can be identified through multiple cytogenetic tests including microarrays and next-generation sequencing (NGS) which can reveal chromosomal aberrations such as copy number variations. Currently‚ the copy number variation tests are widely used due their efficacy in determination of the underlying etiologies especially in neurodevelopmental disorders. Although few studies investigated

Testing It’s standard for women over 35 to be offered genetic testing‚ as the risk of chromosomal abnormalities increases at this age. You can usually choose between a chorionic villus sampling (CVS) at 9 to 11 weeks or an amniocentesis at 15 to 16 weeks. (Miscarriage risks are a bit higher with the CVS test.) If the results are positive‚ further tests
