Progress in Clinical and Biological Research, Volume 384 The Phenotypic Mapping of Down Syndrome and Other Aneuploid Conditions Proceedings of a National Down Syndrome Society Conference Held in New York, January 14 and 15, 1993 Charles J. Epstein, Editor In the last decade, considerable progress in the phenotypic mapping of Down syndrome and other syndromes caused by aneuploidy has been made, answering many perplexing questions and raising new ones. Of primary concern is the relationship between the individual components of the Down syndrome phenotype and the specific genes that give rise to them. In its continuing role of supporting basic research through scientific conferences, the National Down Syndrome Society brought together a panel of experts from genetics, molecular, and cellular biology to explore the genotype--phenotype correlations of Down syndrome and other aneuploid conditions. The Phenotypic Mapping of Down Syndrome and Other Aneuploid Conditions discusses approaches to understanding the genetics and the underlying mechanisms of the different phenotypic characteristics of Down syndrome, as well as animal models of trisomy 21 relevant to phenotypic mapping of Down syndrome. Since the precedents for phenotypic mapping go far beyond human chromosome 21, the book also covers several other aneuploid states in addition to Down syndrome itself, thereby presenting the latest information about state-of-the-art approaches to phenotypic mapping. The text is divided into the following sections: General Approach to Phenotypic Mapping in Aneuploidy Phenotypic Mapping of Down Syndrome Phenotypic Mapping of Animal Models Phenotypic Mapping in Conditions Other than Trisomy 21 The Phenotypic Mapping of Down Syndrome and Other Aneuploid Conditions is essential reading for medical and human geneticists as well as other scientists working in the fields of Down syndrome and related conditions. In addition, clinicians caring for individuals with Down syndrome and other syndromes resulting from aneuploidy will find this book of interest.
