Shanghai Medical College of Fudan University Final Exam of Medical Genetics in 2012-2013 (1) MBBS B Section A Term explanation(24%) 1. Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease A kind ofprion disease, infectious disease 2. Patausyndrome Chromosomal disease, XX(Y, 47,+13 3. Philadelphia chromosome Philadelphia chromosome show that most of chromosome 22 has been translocated onto the long arm of chromosome 9. I This translocation which is found only in tumor cells, indicates that a patient has chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) 4. Incompletely dominant Incomplete dominance occurs when the phenotype ofthe heterozygous genotype is distinct from and often intermediate to the phenotypes ofthe homozygous genotypes

5. Birth defect Birth defects are defined as abnormalities of structure, function, or body metabolism that are present at birth 6. MERRF Myoclonic Epilepsy; Ragged Red Fibers, mtDNA point mutations CNS including: Myoclonus, Epilepsy 7. Susceptibility Risk of complex disease which determined by genes 8. FISH Fluorescence in situ hybridization Section B Short-answer questions(25%) 1. Explain the classification of spina bifida and describe the symptoms Spina bifida is a birth defect that involves the incomplete development of the spinal cord or its coverings. The term spina bifida comes from latin and literally means"split"or open"spine spina bifida occulta meningocele rachischisis
