Read on to know more about the mystery of down syndrome! Researchers from Heidelberg University and the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences have suggested that the cellular pathologies in genetic disorders like Down syndrome, which are brought on by the presence of an extra chromosome, depend less on which specific chromosome is duplicated and more on the presence of an extra chromosomal copy.
