We report on two cases of partial monosomy 21 and review cases with a partial or an apparently full monosomy 21. In situ hybridization and/or molecular studies appear to be necessary tools to study imbalance in such a small chromosome and to perform further genotype-phenotype correlations. The segregation mode in cases with a translocation is adjacent 1, adjacent 2, and 3:1 in about 1/4, 1/4 and 1/2 of the cases, respectively.

D018628 Gene Dosage The number of copies of a given gene present in the cell of an organism. An increase in gene dosage (by GENE DUPLICATION for example) can result in higher levels of gene product formation. GENE DOSAGE COMPENSATION mechanisms result in adjustments to the level GENE EXPRESSION when there are changes or differences in gene dosage.
