pubmed:abstractText
Autosomal trisomy causes a large proportion of all human pregnancy loss and so is a significant source of lethality in the human population. The autosomal trisomy syndromes each have a different phenotype and are probably caused by the effects of specific genes that are present in three copies, rather than the normal two. Identifying these genes will require the application of classical genetic and new genome-manipulation approaches. Recent advances in chromosome engineering are now allowing us to create precisely defined autosomal trisomies in the mouse, and so provide new routes to identifying the critical, dosage-sensitive genes that are responsible for these highly deleterious, yet very common, syndromes.
