“Chromosome #8 Short-p Arm”, Victor McKusick, Mendelian Inheritance in Man’, 1966 was the topic of an earlier blog post.
“Chromosome #8 Long-q Arm”, Victor McKusick, Mendelian Inheritance in Man’, 1966 also was the topic of an earlier blog post.
Here I present: “Chromosome #8”, Victor McKusick, Mendelian Inheritance in Man’, 1966.
INTRODUCTION.
The list of human genes available online from Wikipedia’ and OMIM’ (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man’) are given BELOW. The two sources differ in total gene numbers by one-hundred twenty-two (122) genes; that is 18910–18788=122.
Chromosome eight (8) is presented in two (2) blog post so that memorization of chromosome arms separately is an easier task. The goal of learning chromosomal DNA requires a stepwise approach. ATOP the blog post is the essential genes you will master in memory of chromosome eight (8).
