- Chromosomal translocation - Wikipedia
This includes "balanced" and "unbalanced" translocation, with three main types: "reciprocal", "nonreciprocal" and "Robertsonian" translocation Reciprocal translocation is a chromosome abnormality caused by exchange of parts between non-homologous chromosomes
- Translocation - National Human Genome Research Institute
A translocation, as related to genetics, occurs when a chromosome breaks and the (typically two) fragmented pieces re-attach to different chromosomes The detection of chromosomal translocations can be important for the diagnosis of certain genetic diseases and disorders
- What Are Translocations? What Disorders Do They Cause? - WebMD
A translocation chromosome mutation can be of two types — reciprocal and Robertsonian In a reciprocal translocation, two different chromosomes have exchanged pieces with each other
- Translocation: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia
Translocation means a change in location It often refers to genetics, when part of a chromosome is transferred to another chromosome Chromosomes are structures that carry genes, our units of heredity
- What Is a Chromosomal Translocation and How Does It Happen?
A chromosomal translocation occurs when a piece from one chromosome breaks off and reattaches to a different chromosome, or when two chromosomes swap pieces This rearrangement alters the normal organization of genetic information
- Definition of translocation - NCI Dictionary of Cancer Terms
translocation (TRANZ-loh-KAY-shun) A genetic change in which a piece of one chromosome breaks off and attaches to another chromosome Sometimes pieces from two different chromosomes will trade places with each other Translocations may lead to medical problems such as leukemia, breast cancer, schizophrenia, muscular dystrophy, and Down syndrome
- What Are Translocations? - iCliniq
Translocation is the process by which a piece of a gene moves from one location to another inside a cell's genome or between different cells or organisms
- Translocation in Genetics | Definition, Types Examples
A translocation in genetics occurs when a segment of one chromosome breaks and attaches to a new locus on the same chromosome or to a non-homologous chromosome
