chromosomal instability

chromosome instability

 
Chromosomal instabilities are related to abnormalities of DNA metabolism, DNA repair, cell-cycle governance, or control of apoptosis.

Pathology (chromosomal instability syndromes)

-  ataxia telangiectasia
-  Fanconi anaemia
-  Bloom syndrome
-  Nijmegen breakage syndrome
-  ataxia telangiectasia-like disorder
