More details about testing are below under Molecular Genetic Testing for BWS. For BWS patients who are part of a multiple pregnancy, knowing the zygosity and chorionicity is important for appropriate ...

It makes sense that identical twins would have the exact same DNA, right? Spoiler alert: Not always! Here's why. Identical twins (also called monozygotic or MZ twins) are conceived when a single ...

the gene in which the VUS was identified and the Human Genome Variation Society nomenclature (coding DNA and protein change); the VUS zygosity; the gene’s associated phenotype as per OMIM16; and the ...

Transposable elements (TEs, transposons) are mobile DNAs that are prevalent in most eukaryotic genomes. In plants, their mobility has vastly contributed to genetic diversity which is essential for ...
