Behavioral, Molecular and Genetic Characterization of 3q29 Deletion Syndrome and 3q29 Duplication Syndrome
The 3q29 deletion syndrome is caused by a deletion of a small part of human chromosome 3, and
the duplication syndrome is caused by a duplication of this same small region. The purpose of
this study is to understand the medical and behavioral consequences of these syndromes.
the duplication syndrome is caused by a duplication of this same small region. The purpose of
this study is to understand the medical and behavioral consequences of these syndromes.
People with 3q29 deletion syndrome are missing a small part of a region on human chromosome
3, and people with 3q29 duplication syndrome have an extra part of their chromosome 3.
Sometimes babies are born with a deletion or duplication of part of human chromosome 3, even
though their parents have an intact chromosome 3. This is called de novo (or new)
abnormalities.
