Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background:</h4> Trisomy 21, also known as Down syndrome, describes the genetic condition of having an extra copy of chromosome 21. The increase in DNA copy number has led to the "DNA dosage hypothesis", which claims that the level of gene transcription is proportional to the gene’s DNA copy number.
