Four cases of duplication of a segment of 11p have been reported in patients with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (Waziri et al. 1983, Turleau et al. 1984). We describe a patient with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome who has a deletion of chromosome 11(p11p13) and suggest involvement of this chromosomal region in both the duplicated and deleted states such as occurs in Prader-Willi syndrome. 相似文献

We report on a 9-year-old female patient with facial anomalies and developmental delay, heterozygous for three de novo rearrangements: a paracentric inversion of chromosome 7, an apparently balanced translocation between chromosome 1 and 7, involving the same inverted chromosome 7, detected by standard cytogenetic analysis [46,XX, der(7) inv(7)(q21.1q32.1)t(1;7)(q23q32.1)]; and a 2p16.1 deletion, spanning about 3.5 Mb of genomic DNA, shown by SNP-array analysis [arr 2p16.1 (56,706,666-60,234,485)x1 dn]. Clinical features and cytogenetic imbalance in our patient were similar to those reported in five published cases, suggesting that this genomic region is prone to recombination and its hemizygosity results in a distinct although variable spectrum of clinical manifestations. 相似文献

Deletion of chromosome 1p: a short review 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
A further patient with a deletion of 1p is described, bringing the number of reported cases to 13. The cytogenetic derivation of the deletions and the clinical phenotype are reviewed. The range of breakpoints and small number of cases result in no clearly defined phenotype. Facial dysmorphism, clinodactyly of the fifth finger, mental retardation and heart defects are, however, most frequently described, with a high-arched palate, in particular, seen in deletions distal to p34. 相似文献

Pericentric inversions in chromosome 2 were traced in 2 unrelated North American black families. In the case of inv(2)(p13q11) no effect on reproduction was observed. In the case of inv(2)(p11q13) some reproductive abnormalities were noted which might be related to the inversion. 相似文献

The region p13 of the short arm of human chromosome 11 has been studied intensely during the search for genes involved in the etiology of the Wilms' tumor, aniridia, genitourinary abnormalities, mental retardation (WAGR) syndrome, and related conditions. The gene map for this region is far from being complete, however, strengthening the need for additional gene identification efforts. We describe the extension of an existing contig map with P1-derived artificial chromosomes (PACs) to cover 7.5 Mb of 11p13-14.1. The extended sequence-ready contig was established by end probe walking and fingerprinting and consists of 201 PAC clones. Utilizing bins defined by overlapping PACs, we generated a detailed gene map containing 20 genes as well as 22 anonymous ESTs which have been identified by searching the RH databases. RH maps and our established gene map show global correlation, but the limits of resolution of the current RH panels are evident at this scale. Initial expression studies on the novel genes have been performed by Northern blot analyses. To extend these expression profiles, corresponding mouse cDNA clones were identified by database search and employed for Northern blot analyses and RNA in situ hybridizations to mouse embryo sections. Genomic sequencing of clones along a minimal tiling path through the contig is currently under way and will facilitate these expression studies by in silico gene identification approaches. 相似文献

Deletion of chromosome 15 (q11-13) in a Prader-Labhart-Willi syndrome clinic population 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Deletion of the long arm of chromosome 15 has recently been reported in a number of patients with the Prader-Labhart-Willi syndrome who were studied with prometaphase banding. We performed cytogenetic analysis on 12 patients with this disorder in whom the clinical diagnosis was certain. A specific cytogenetic anomaly, del(15q11-13) was found in all of the 12 patients. In nine of the 12, the deletion was noted in all cells examined; in two, there was mosaicism, some cells having the deletion and others being normal; one patient had a 7;15 translocation. No clinical differences were evident between individuals with mosaicism for the translocation and those with the typical deletion in all cells examined. The finding that all of our patients with Prader-Labhart-Willi syndrome have a cytogenetic anomaly, with some patients having mosaicism, distinguishes the results of this study from those of previous reports. Prometaphase chromosome analysis is recommended in all individuals clinically suspected of having Prader-Labhart-Willi syndrome and should be considered in hypotonic infants without a specific diagnosis. 相似文献

One of the chief complexities of genetic influences on human obesity appears to be gene-gene interactions. Here, we employed model-free approaches to look for gene-gene interaction effects in human obesity using genome scan data from 260 European American families. We found consistent evidence for statistical interaction between 2p25-p24 (18-38 cM) and 13q13-q21 (26-47 cM). For discrete traits, the positive correlations were significant at P<0.0001 (P=0.0023 after correction for multiple tests) in both IBD-based and NPL-based analyses for BMI>/=40 kg/m(2). Other analytic approaches gave consistent, supportive results. For quantitative traits, interaction effects were significant for BMI (P=0.0012), percent fat (P=0.0265) and waist circumference (P=0.0023) in a Haseman-Elston regression model, and for BMI (P=0.0043) in variance component analysis. Our findings suggest that obesity-susceptibility loci in chromosome regions 2p25-p24 and 13q13-21 may interact to influence extreme human obesity. The identification of gene-gene interactions may prove crucial to understanding the contributions of genes, which, by themselves, have relatively small effects on obesity susceptibility and resistance. 相似文献

A complex three-way t(8;18;16)(p11;q21;p13) was detected in a 15-month-old patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The patient had typical clinical manifestation and bone marrow features of AML subtype M5b associated with t(8;16)(p11;p13). Therefore, we believe that the t(8;18;16) is a new variant of t(8;16) related to AML M4/M5. We also review other t(8;16)(p11;p13) variants reported in the literature. 相似文献

Deletion of the short arm of chromosome 7 at 7(p13p14) has been occasionally reported in non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma (NHL). The inclusion of this abnormality within the list of nonrandom changes awaited further data. We report three partial deletions of 7p with breakpoint at 7p13, found in various subtypes of NHL, and one deletion covering these bands (7p11 to 7p15). The association of 7p- with other chromosomal changes in the same NHL suggests that partial 7p deletion is a nonrandom secondary abnormality. 相似文献

More than 100 cases of deletions that span 11p13-11p14 resulting in WAGR syndrome have been reported in the literature. In contrast, reports of duplications spanning this region are extremely rare. We here report on a deletion of 11p13-11p14 identified in a neonate with severe congenital anomalies including genitourinary abnormalities and aniridia, and the reciprocal duplication identified in his healthy older sibling. Both were derived from a paternal balanced insertion of the 11p region into 18q. The deletion and duplication were characterized by G-banding, FISH and array CGH, and are estimated to include approximately 5.5-5.8 Mb. This single family report highlights the mild phenotypes that can be associated with duplications of chromosomal regions, even those that are larger than 5 Mb and harbor known disease-related genes, and highlights the impact of identifying balanced carrier status in a parent for accurate genetic counseling. 相似文献

We recently analyzed under homogeneity a large pedigree from Belize with classic juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME). After a genome wide search with 146 microsatellites, we obtained significant linkage between chromosome 6p markers, D6S257 and D6S272, and both convulsive and EEG traits of JME. Recombinations in two affected members defined a 40 cM JME region flanked by D6S313 and D6S258. In the present communication, we explored if the same chromosome 6p11 microsatellites also have a role in JME mixed with pyknoleptic absences. We allowed for heterogeneity during linkage analyses. We tested for heterogeneity by the admixture test and looked for more recombinations. D6S272, D6S466, D6S294, and D6S257 were significantly linked (Zmax > 3.5) to the clinical and EEG traits of 22 families, assuming autosomal dominant inheritance with 70% penetrance. Pairwise Zmax were 4.230 for D6S294 (θm = f at 0.133) and 4.442 for D6S466 (θm = f at 0.111). Admixture test (H2 vs. H1) was significant (P = 0.0234 for D6S294 and 0.0128 for D6S272) supporting the hypotheses of linkage with heterogeneity. Estimated proportion of linked families, α, was 0.50 (95% confidence interval 0.05–0.99) for D6S294 and D6S272. Multipoint analyses and recombinations in three new families narrowed the JME locus to a 7 cM interval flanked by D6S272 and D6S257. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

A number of recent reports of linkage of markers on chromosome 10p to schizophrenia, and evidence for linkage in one study to bipolar affective disorder, provide encouragement for psychiatric genetics, after nonreplication of linkage findings at other chromosomal regions. The same region on chromosome 10 also demonstrates evidence for linkage to obesity, female alcoholism, and female type 1 diabetes. However, evidence for linkage can be confounded by the biological phenomenon of transmission ratio distortion. Transmission ratio distortion (also termed segregation distortion or meiotic drive) results in non-Mendelian segregation of alleles to live born offspring, and has not been investigated at the majority of loci for complex traits. We examined evidence for transmission ratio distortion using 40 Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH) pedigrees across chromosome 10 using CEPH genotype data. Evidence for linkage of females to D10S211 was found (multipoint non-parametric linkage Z score [NPL] = 1.84, P = 0.040), while there was no linkage of this marker to male sex. The observation of possible transmission ratio distortion in females on chromosome 10p requires additional study, and may impact on the interpretation of positive linkage findings in this region. Am.

We report the construction and characterization of a region-specific microdissection library for human chromosome 2p11–p13. This library (designated 2P4 library) is large, comprising 600,000 recombinant microclones. Thirty to 40% of the clones contain unique sequences. The insert sizes range from 100 to 800 bp, with a mean of 380 bp. A subset of the microclones was selected, based on their weak or no hybridization to total human DNA, for further analysis. Of 50 single-copy microclones analyzed, 35 clones (70%) were derived from human and are chromosome 2-specific. The insert sizes and the hybridizing genomic HindIII fragments of these clones were also determined. The 2P4 microdissection library and the single-copy microclones from the library are useful in preparing STS (sequence-tagged site) to isolate corresponding YAC (yeast artificial chromosome) or other clones with large inserts and for isolating region-specific cDNA clones as candidate genes for cloning disease-related genes assigned to this region. 相似文献

Approximately 3% of the live-born infants have major dysmorphic features, and about two-thirds of which are observed in the maxillofacial region; however, in many cases, the etiology of the dysmorphic features remains uncertain. Recently, the genome-wide screening of large patient cohorts with congenital disorders has made it possible to discover genomic aberrations corresponding to the pathogenesis. In our analyses of more than 536 cases of clinically undiagnosed multiple congenital anomalies and mental retardation (MR) by microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization, we detected two non-consanguineous unrelated patients with microdeletions at 10p11.23-p12.1, which overlapped for 957 kb, including four protein-coding genes: ARMC4, MPP7, WAC and BAMBI. As the two patients had similar phenotypes; for example, MR and multiple maxillofacial abnormalities including midface retrusion, wide mouth and large tongue, we assessed the phenotypes in detail to define the common features, using quantitative evaluations of the maxillofacial dysmorphism. The concordance of the genetic and phenotypic alterations is a good evidence of a new syndrome. Although an interstitial deletion of 10p is rare, the current study is the first trial to examine precisely the craniofacial characteristics of patients with a heterozygous deletion at 10p11.23-p12.1, and presents good evidence to diagnose potential patients with the same genetic cause. 相似文献

A girl aged 2 1/2 years with Moebius syndrome was found to have a deletion of band q12.2 in chromosome 13 (46,XX,del(13)(q12.2]. This is the second report concerning involvement of chromosome 13q and Moebius syndrome. The observation raises the possibility that a gene responsible for Moebius syndrome is located in this region of chromosome 13. 相似文献

The present paper describes a girl with a small de novo deletion of chromosome 9(p12p13). This deletion has not been published previously. The deleted fragment is clearly outside the region involved in the so-called deletion 9p syndrome. The patient had mild dysmorphic features and feeding problems during the first weeks of life, but is now developing well. Because of the lack of severe clinical features in this patient, we speculate that the deletion may be prevalent in other patients who have no clinical indication for chromosome investigation. 相似文献

We report a four-generation kindred with a balanced 13q14q Robertsonian translocation. The proband had the Down sydrome, due to trisomy of chromosome 21; he also carried the balanced D-group translocation. S segregation analysis of 86 sibships was performed to examine the risk of t(13q14q) carrier parents having trisomy 21, 47,XXY, or trisomy 13 children by which a number of families were ascertained. None of these disorders recurred after birth of the propositi. The frequency of abortions was not different from that of the general population. The conditional segregation ratio for balanced translocation carriers among the phenotypically normal offspring of carrier parents was 0.55 +/- 0.04. 相似文献
