Chromosomal sub-microscopic imbalances, such as microdeletions and microduplications, are associated with multiple genetic disorders. Here, we illustrate microdeletion 3q13.33q21.

Background: Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is often the first-line treatment for unexplained infertility. -Microsemino protein (MSMB) is an abundant protein in seminal plasma that has an inhibitory effect on spontaneous acrosome reaction.
Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate gene variations and protein expression on IUI success rate in unexplained infertile men.

Chromosomal structural variations (SVs) are linked to a wide range of phenotypes and arise due to disruptions during DNA replication, which can affect gene function within the SV regions. This case report details a patient diagnosed with neurodevelopmental delay. Detailed investigation through array comparative genomic hybridization revealed two pathogenic SVs on chromosome 1, which align with a 1p36 microdeletion, and a microduplication at 2p35.

Background: TBX6, a member of the T-box gene family, encodes the transcription factor box 6 that is critical for somite segmentation in vertebrates. It is known that the compound heterozygosity of disruptive variants in trans with a common hypomorphic risk haplotype (T-C-A) in the TBX6 gene contribute to 10% of congenital scoliosis (CS) cases. The deletion of chromosome 17q12 is a rare cytogenetic abnormality, which often leads to renal cysts and diabetes mellitus.

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and Williams Syndrome (WS; MIM # 194050) are distinct genetic conditions characterized by unique clinical features. 21-Hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD; MIM #201910), the most common form of CAH, arises from mutations in the gene, resulting in virilization of the external genitalia in affected females, early puberty in males, and short stature. Williams syndrome, caused by a microdeletion of 7q11.
