	Chromosome 17 - Genetics Home Reference
		Chromosome 17 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans.
		Chromosome 17 spans more than 81 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents between 2.5 and 3 percent of the total DNA in cells.
		Genes on chromosome 17 are among the estimated 20,000 to 25,000 total genes in the human genome.

		Chromosome preparations from patient 2 were made from a bone marrow aspirate that was extensively infiltrated with neuroblastoma cells.
		Co-hybridization of MYCN (pNb-9), a chromosome 17 library (pBS-17), and a chromosome 17 centr omere probe (p17H8) showed that the two HSRs in N206 were the result of MYCN amplification and that they were integrated in the long arms of chromosomes 17 (Fig.4k).
		Chromosomes in a-c, e-j, l-p, r and s are counterstained with propidium iodide whereas in d,k,q and t chromosomes are counterstained with DAPI.

	Constitutional translocation t(1;17)(p36.31-p36.13;q11.2-q12.1) in a neuroblastoma patient.
		Because of close resemblance of the der(17) with the small metacentric hamster chromosomes, the presence or the absence of this derivative chromosome was confirmed with dual color FISH combining a centromere specific probe for human chromosome 17, p17H8 (D17Z1), and a chromosome 1p subtelomeric probe, p1-79 (D1Z2).
		A somatic cell hybrid containing the TK locus on the der(1) without the normal human chromosome 17 was not established, so chromosome 17 markers could not be used in Southern blot experiments for the determination of their position relative to the chromosome 17 breakpoint.
		For the localization of human chromosome 1 or 17 region specific probes in the hybrid cell lines, the probe of interest was cohybridized with the probes allowing identification of the derivative 1 and 17 chromosomes : pUC1.77 (D1Z1) for the sub-centromeric region of chromosome 1 and p17H8 (D17Z1) for the centromeric region of chromosome 17.

	The Sanger Institute: Human Chromosome 6 Project Overview
		Chromosome 6 is a submetacentric chromosome that constitutes about 6% of the human genome.
		Chromosome 6 harbours the largest transfer RNA gene cluster in the genome; we have shown that this cluster co-localizes with a region of high transcriptional activity.
		The Chromosome 6 ACEDB database (6ace) is used as a tool for managing the in-house data and acts as the primary means by which chromosome 6 data generated at The Sanger Institute will be released into the public domain in an annotated and usable form.

		Eight comparative anchor loci on human chromosome 17, TP53, CHRNB1, THRA1, CRYB1, NF1, MPO, MYL4, and P4HB, were mapped to bovine chromosome 19 using bovine x hamster and bovine x mouse hybrid somatic cell lines.
		This completes the synteny mapping of human chromosome 17 comparative anchor loci in cattle, all of which have been mapped to bovine chromosome 19 and mouse chromosome 11, with the exception of CSH1.
		While all of the genes mapped to cattle chromosome 19 are on human chromosome 17, genes on mouse chromosome 11 are distributed on 7 human chromosomes, supporting the hypothesis that there is greater conservation of synteny between human and bovine chromosomes than between human and mouse.

		For the first time, a team of UCLA geneticists have isolated the likely region of an autism gene on chromosome 17 and then successfully duplicated their efforts in a separate population.
		In an earlier discovery, the scientists were surprised to find that the gene contributes to autism only in boys, perhaps explaining why girls have a dramatically lower risk of developing the disease.

		The human X chromosome has a unique biology that was shaped by its evolution as the sex chromosome shared by males and females.

		LINE1 repeat elements cover one-third of the X chromosome, with a distribution that is consistent with their proposed role as way stations in the process of X-chromosome inactivation.

		It is caused by a small deletion (microdeletion) on chromosome 17 (17p 11.2), which can be detected cytogenetically and/or by a special diagnostic test called Fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) analysis.
		Rarely, the 17p11.2 microdeletion may arise in a child because one of the parents might carry a "balanced" rearrangement involving this region of the short arm of one chromosome 17.
		If the parental chromosomes are normal then the recurrence risk of SMS is likely to be very small.
