Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder that can affect the blood’s ability to clot properly. In most cases, people inherit the gene variations for hemophilia in an X-linked recessive inheritance pattern.

Learn about Retinoschisis, including Juvenile X-linked, Degenerative, and Senile types—their causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options for eye health ...

Finally, we discuss the importance of considering the peculiar modes of X chromosome regulation in the interpretation of phenotypic effects caused by X-linked mutations.

This X-linked pattern implies novel ways to prioritize families for screening even without additional testing—sisters must both be carriers or neither.

Researchers have linked the genetic disorders Fragile X and SHANK3 deletion syndrome to walking patterns by examining the microscopic movements of those wearing motion-sensored sneakers.

High-profile burglaries of pro athletes are seen as part of a wider pattern of criminals traveling from South America to target affluent homes in the U.S.

Color-coded cells reveal patchwork pattern of X chromosome silencing in female brains Date: January 8, 2014 Source: Johns Hopkins Medicine Summary: Producing brightly speckled red and green ...

It's all about how the body handles females' extra X chromosome, Stanford University researchers reported Thursday — a finding that could lead to better ways to detect a long list of diseases ...

This pattern points to an unknown "orange gene" on the X chromosome, but identifying this gene has eluded scientists for decades.

The results are an early step towards uncovering the brain patterns that are linked to pain, which could help with the development of more effective treatments, say the researchers.
