This structure encodes the common gamma chain, damage to which causes a form of SCID.
This structure encodes the common gamma chain, damage to which causes a form of SCID. In one disease, a CGG trinucleotide repeat expands on the FMR1 gene on this construct. Lyonization of these produces Barr bodies in females. Mutations on the dystrophin gene, located at p.21 on this structure, cause Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Turner Syndrome is due to absence of one of these, while Klinefelter's syndrome is caused by an extra one. Some diseases passed down on this construct are color-blindness and hemophilia, and in sex- linked inheritance, most diseases are passed down on this chromosome. Name this chromosome, of which females have two and males have one.
