Chromosome 9 P Minus Syndrome
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Patients with deletion of chromosome 9 P are rare (~200 in the medical literature) and have a diverse set of phenotypic characteristics. We propose using state of the art genome sequencing methods to define the location and size of the deleted portion of chromosome 9 P as well as the genetic background in affected patients (whole genome sequencing) and correlate the genes in the deleted portion of chromosome 9 P with specific phenotypic characteristics of each patient. Enrolled participants will be asked to complete a detailed questionnaire, complete a medical release form, and provide a biospecimen sample.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Genotypic and Phenotypic Correlation [As enrollment increases the team hopes to have preliminary results by 2022]
By use of demographic and genetic material we hope to gain a better understanding between the deletion on the short arm of the 9th chromosome and the features presented.
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria

-
Having 9P minus syndrome/ deletions on the 9th chromosome
-
Parents and siblings of affected individuals may also be included to determine contribution of genetic background to phenotypic characteristics
Exclusion Criteria:
- No exclusion criteria for either affected individuals or their parents or siblings.
