Abstract excerpt
Aberrations in human chromosome copy number and structure are common and extremely deleterious. Their downstream effects on phenotype are caused by aberrant dosage of sequences in the affected regions. However, we know little about why the abnormal gene copy number causes disease or why specific features result from deficits in specific chromosomes. Mice are the organism of choice to help us try to tease apart...
