Topic: Chromosome 14 (human)


  
  Another human chromosome is finished   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
Draft versions of the human genome were published in February 2002, and in the last three years, chromosomes 22, 21, and 20 have been completed.
By comparing the human genes to genes in other species, including the mouse and the freshwater pufferfish (Tetraodon nigroviridis), the researchers were able to propose biological functions for more than 96 percent of the genes.
Chromosome 14 contains human versions of two genes in sheep associated with unusually muscular hindquarters, a rare condition known as callipyge (from the Greek for beautiful buttocks).

 Chromosome 14 Ring
Chromosome 14 Ring is a rare disorder that is characterized by abnormalities of the 14th chromosome.
Chromosome 14 Ring may also be characterized by other physical abnormalities, including a short neck with excessive skin folds; abnormal skin ridge patterns (dermatoglyphics), such as the presence of a single crease across the palm (simian crease); widely spaced nipples; and abnormalities of skin coloration (pigmentation).
Chromosome 14 Ring usually appears to be caused by spontaneous or "de novo" errors early during the development of the embryo.

 Chromosome 14 - Genetics Home Reference
Chromosome 14 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans.
Chromosome 14 spans about 105 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents between 3 and 3.5 percent of the total DNA in cells.
Genes on chromosome 14 are among the estimated 20,000 to 25,000 total genes in the human genome.

Human cells typically have 23 pairs of chromosomes, each pair made up of a chromosome from each parent.
The researchers describe chromosome 14 and its 87,410,661 pairs of DNA in Thursday's edition of the journal Nature.
Other diseases with genes present on chromosome 14 are spastic paraplegia, a neurodegenerative condition that leads to weakness or stiffness of the legs; and Usher syndrome, which results in gradual hearing and vision loss.

 United Press International: Chromosome 14 sequence completed   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
In all, the researchers identified about 1,050 genes and gene fragments within chromosome 14, more than 60 of which other studies have found are responsible for such conditions as early onset Alzheimer's disease, a severe form of Usher's syndrome and cardiovascular disease.
"We chose chromosome 14 because we had prepared mapping (substances) for this chromosome in 1998 and 1999 and hence were in good position to establish its sequence," said researcher Jean Weissenbach, of Genoscope, the company that led the mapping effort.
The work on chromosome 14 was completed as part of the human genome Sequencing Consortium, an international group of researchers attempting to fill in gaps in the data on the human genome.
