A patient with duplication (7)(p15.3p22.3) and deletion (7)(p22.3pter) characterized by array-CGH
This study details a patient with developmental delay and unique physical features, identifying a 7p chromosomal abnormality. The findings link specific genetic duplications and deletions on chromosome 7 to observed neurodevelopmental and congenital conditions.
Area of Science:
- Genetics
- Clinical Medicine
- Developmental Biology
Background:
- Chromosomal abnormalities, particularly those involving chromosome 7, are associated with a range of neurodevelopmental disorders.
- Understanding the specific genes and their functions within duplicated or deleted chromosomal regions is crucial for diagnosing and managing related phenotypes.

Gene Duplication and Divergence
The duplicated copies of the gene are called Paralogs. Paralogs with similar sequences and functions form a gene family. Across several species, a large number of gene families are...
