Animal models of ZS and X-ADL have been developed and are providing researchers with methods to define pathogenic mechanisms and to evaluate new therapies.
For example, in humans, there are 22 pairs of autosomes.
Two copies of an altered gene located on one of the autosomes must be present for an individual to be affected with the trait or condition determined by that gene:

Although any autosome can undergo nondisjunction, only a few of these aberrations are expressed in viable offspring.
External symptoms are similar to Edward's with the addition of cleft palate and/or lip, microcehphaly, polydactyl and deafness (Levitan).
The most common autosome aberrations are Down Syndrome, Edward Syndrome and Patua Syndrome.

That is, children may express a trait which their parents do not.
Note that a mosaic can arise by many other mechanisms involving the change in genetic information (e.g., nondisjunction during mitosis) in the course of soma development.

 Swyer syndrome
Passarge and Wolf (1981) pointed out that there are 2 groups of patients with XY gonadal dysgenesis (Swyer syndrome) and that each of these may be heterogeneous.
One group is the H-Y antigen-positive form, which may represent a 'receptor disease.' The second is the H-Y antigen-negative form, which may be due to mutation in the H-Y generating system, either of the structural gene (presumably autosomal) or of a controlling gene (on the sex chromosomes).
In this condition, as in the testicular feminization syndrome (300068), it was at first unclear whether the gene that was responsible was on the X chromosome or on an autosome and expressed only in chromosomal males.

Besides studying the human genome, the researchers also charted the gene traffic of the X chromosome, as well as its 19 autosomes, for the mouse and found the same basic pattern.
Long’s laboratory first discovered this pattern of X-derived autosomal genes that express in the testis using the fruit fly, work published in Genome Research in 2002.
The researchers noted that this Darwinian process has evolved slowly since both mouse and humans share the same excess traffic characteristics on the X chromosome.
