Descriptor English: Gene Deletion
Descriptor Spanish: Eliminación de Gen
Descriptor deleción génica
Entry term(s) eliminación de genes
Scope note: Reordenamiento genético por pérdida de segmentos de ADN o ARNA que hace que secuencias que normalmente están separadas estén en estrecha proximidad. Esta eliminación puede detectarse con técnicas citogenéticas y también puede inferirse si el fenotipo indica una eliminación en un locus específico.
