Genetic Features of Turner Syndrome T urner syndrome is a disorder caused by the loss of genetic material from one of the sex chromosomes. Humans normally have a total of 46 chromosomes (which are tiny, DNA-containing elements) that are present in every cell of the body. DNA encodes genes, which specify all the proteins that make up the body and control its functions. In humans, there are 23 matched pairs of chromosomes in every cell. Each cell contains 22 pairs of chromosomes called autosomes that are the same in males and females. The remaining pair of chromosomes, the X- and Y-chromosomes, are not shaped similarly, and thus are not matched in the same way as the autosomes. The X- and Y-chromosomes are called sex chromosomes. They are responsible for the difference in development between males and females. A Y-chromosome contains genes responsible for testis development; and the presence of a X-chromosome paired with a Y-chromosome will determine male development. On the other hand, two X-chromosomes are required for normal ovarian development in females. X-CHROMOSOME MONOSOMY D uring the process in which oocytes (eggs) or sperm are formed, one of the sex chromosomes is sometimes "lost" (see

Contents Title Page Introduction Normal Sex Differentiation Disorders of Sex Differentiation ... Return to Pediatric Endocrine III. Disorders of Sex Differentiation - A General Outline Sex differentiation is a complex physiological process comprised of many steps. Problems associated with sex differentiation, or syndromes of intersexuality, occur when errors in development take place at any of these steps. Genetic Sex Problems can arise at fertilization when chromosomal sex is established. For example, girls with Turner Syndrome have a 45,XO karyotype and boys with Klinefelter Syndrome have a 47,XXY karyotype. It is also known that some women have a 46,XY or 47,XXX karyotype and some men a 46,XX or 47,XYY karyotype. Clearly then, when it is stated that 46,XY refers to male sex and 46,XX refers to female sex, this is a generalization which applies to most, but not all, individuals. Gonadal Sex Disorders of sex differentiation can occur when a bipotential gonad is incapable of developing into a testis or an ovary. The inability to develop testes may occur if a gene such as SRY is absent or deficient. When this is the case, a 46,XY fetus will not receive the SRY signal to develop testes despite the presence of a Y chromosome. Additionally, 46,XY fetuses may begin to develop testes, but this development can be thwarted, and subsequently MIS and androgen production may be absent or diminished. Finally, the normal disappearance of germ cells associated with ovarian development in fetuses is so accelerated in Turner Syndrome that by birth these babies possess gonadal streaks as opposed to normal ovaries.

More than 95% of adult women with Turner syndrome exhibit short stature and infertility. Pathophysiology: Turner syndrome is caused by the absence of one set of genes from the short arm of one X chromosome. In patients with 45 X karyotype, about two thirds are missing the paternal X chromosome. In addition to monosomy X, a similar clinical picture is found with a 46 XXiq karyotype and in some individuals with mosaic karyotypes. A deletion of the SHOX gene can cause an identical phenotype and also may be considered as a variety of Turner syndrome. Frequency: In the US: Frequency is approximately 1 in 2,000 live-born female infants. As many as 15% of spontaneous abortions have a 45 X karyotype. Internationally: Incidence is the same as for the United States. No known ethnic or racial factors influence frequency.

In particular there is webbing of the neck and different shapes to the chest that are reminiscent of Turner syndrome, hence the former name Turner-like syndrome. Pectus Excavatum Noonan syndrome can be inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. It affects at least 1 in 2,500 children. The fact that some children do not have a parent with Noonan syndrome likely reflects sporadic inheritance, that is, presumably the occurrence of a new mutation. The first specific gene that causes Noonan syndrome, called , was discovered in 2001. It is expected that other genes will be discovered that cause Noonan syndrome.

Main Search Index Definition Description Causes ... Resources Turner syndrome Definition Turner syndrome is a disorder of the chromosomes affecting females, where one of the two X chromosomes is partially or completely absent. Description Chromosomes are structures in the nucleus of every cell in the body. Chromosomes contain the genetic information necessary to direct the growth and functioning of all the cells and systems of the body. A normal person has a total of 46 chromosomes in each cell, two of which are responsible for determining the sex of that person. Normally, females have two X chromosomes and males have one X and one Y chromosome. In Turner syndrome, an error very early in development results in an abnormal number and arrangement of chromosomes. Most commonly, a patient with Turner syndrome will be born with 45 chromosomes in each cell rather than 46. The missing chromosome is an X chromosome. About 1 in every 8,000 babies born has Turner syndrome. No cause has been identified for Turner syndrome. At birth, female babies with Turner syndrome are below average in weight and length. They have slightly swollen hands and feet, and sometimes have swelling at the nape of the neck. Girls with Turner syndrome are shorter than normal, and have short, webbed necks with extra, loose skin. The jaw is usually small and the ears are large. An extra fold of skin is often seen on either side of the nose, close to the eye (called an epicanthic fold). The chest is usually quite broad, with increased distance between the nipples.

Genetic Science Learning Center at the Eccles Institute of Human Genetics University of Utah Home ... karyotypeold What if We Have Too Many or Too Few Chromosomes? What if We Have Too Many or Too Few Chromosomes? Meiosis is the cell division process that produces cells that will become the egg and sperm cells of an organism. Cells produced by meiosis have half the normal number of chromosomes (each meiotic cell has one copy of each chromosome), so that when an egg and sperm fuse at fertilization, the resulting zygote has the two copies of each chromosome it needs for proper development. Sometimes during the course of normal meiosis, chromosomes are not correctly distributed from a dividing cell into the two daughter cells. When this happens, one daughter cell has twice the number of copies of that particular chromosome and the other daughter is left with no copies of that chromosome. If such a cell is later used in a fertilization event, the resulting zygote will have either a total of one of that type of chromosome (monosomy) or have three of that type of chromosome (trisomy). Abnormal numbers of chromosomes are very often incompatible with life. In general, the human body can tolerate excess genetic material more easily than it can tolerate missing genetic material. In certain cases, such as Turner's Syndrome, if individuals are identified soon enough they can be successfully treated with hormones to reduce the effects of the chromosome imbalance.
