Overview

Chromosome 11 is one of the 23 pairs of Chromosomes found in human cells and carries a large number of genes essential to normal development and function. The genes located on this chromosome participate in many biological processes, and variations or abnormalities affecting chromosome 11 are associated with a range of inherited conditions and disease susceptibilities. As with other human Chromosomes, chromosome 11 is studied to map the location of genes, to understand how changes in its structure or in specific genes contribute to disease, and to clarify the relationships between genetic variation and health. As a topic within the study of Chromosomes, chromosome 11 connects the detailed mapping of individual Chromosomes with the broader investigation of how genetic material is organized and how genetic variation influences traits and disease. Research in this field examines chromosome structure and behavior across organisms, the genes Chromosomes carry, and the effects of genetic differences, including studies linking specific genetic variants to clinical outcomes. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to chromosome 11 and the broader study of Chromosomes and genetics.
