Ring chromosome 15

Ring chromosome 15 (sometimes denoted as r15) is a condition that arises when chromosome 15 fuses to form a ring chromosome. Usually, r15 forms due to modifications or deletion of genes on chromosome 15 in the preliminary stages of embryonic development but it can rarely also be inherited.
