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

Inside of each of your cells are thread-like structures made up of parts called chromosomes. These tightly wound threads are what people mean when they refer to your DNA. It’s a blueprint for cell ...

We investigated six Robertsonian translocations, including two cases of rob(13q14q), one of rob(14q21q), one of rob(13q22q), and two of rob(21q21q), by means of fluorescencein situ hybridization (FISH ...

Robertsonian translocation is the most common form of chromosomal translocation in humans. It means that two chromosomes, the structures that make up a person’s DNA, join together in an abnormal way.
