Is Tay-Sachs Disease a result of nondisjunction? |
I have been looking everywhere for the answer to this question and still cannot find it. If anyone could help me, it would be greatly appreciated! If it is, which chromosomes are affected? Tay-Sachs is a homozygous recessive disease that typically affects Ashkenasi Jews. It involves the mutation of a gene that codes for a protein involved in lysosomal lipid storage. (Technically it is a "GM2 Gangliosidosis") I cant find the information but there are 2 links at the bottom of the page below where you may be able to get an answer. |
