autosomal

Cockayne syndrome is a severe autosomal recessive disorder caused by defective DNA repair mechanisms.

The genome consists of 2.9 billion base pairs, which form 23 autosomal chromosomes, and X and Y sex chromosomes.

Additionally, scientists from the Armed Forces Medical Examiner System identified Charvet’s remains using mitochondrial DNA and autosomal DNA analysis.

Less severe autosomal dominant forms of HPP result from the inheritance of a defective gene from one parent who also may have the disease.

From there, Othram generated a data file containing her autosomal DNA, the genetic material that is shared among families.
