Pure monosomy and trisomy 2q24.2→q3105 due to an inv ins(7;2)(q21.2;q3105q24.2) segregating in four generations

Summary An inv ins(7;2)(q21.2;q3105q24.2) was found to segregate through four generations of a family. Adjacent-1 segregation aneusomies were ascertained in five patients: three monosomics and two trisomics; and the corresponding syndromes were delineated. The comparative analysis between these and other previously described 2q aneusomic individuals led to the conclusion that a large cleft between first and second toes is a constant feature in monosomy 2q24q31. No other trait could plausible be mapped. Risks of 7.9 to 31.9% for aneusomic children and of 26.3% for abortion were estimated in the present family.     

New gene in the homologous human 11q13–q14 and mouse 7F chromosomal regions

Alterations in the chromosomal region 11q13–11q14 are involved in several pathologies in which most of the key genes remain to be identified. In an effort to isolate as many candidates as possible, we are cloning genes from this region. We report here the mapping for a new sequence from 11q13.5–11q14. This sequence, designated D11S833E, putatively encodes a new gene, provisionally named GARP. We cloned its homologous sequence in the mouse and located it on Chromosome (Chr) 7, region F. The human and mouse genes belong to a conserved group of synteny. This, together with the similar conservation of the FGF and TYR genes, indicates that the human 11q13–q14 and mouse 7E-7F regions share homology.

Triplex gene dosage effect for β-glucronidase and possible assignment to band q22 in a partial duplication 7q

Summary A 2-year-old girl had a de novo duplication in the long arm of one chromosome 7 and an increased level of the enzyme -glucuronidase in cultured fibroblasts. The phenotype of the girl partly overlaps those of two presumptive syndromes due to secondary partial trisomies 7q. The ratio of the enzyme activity was 1.43 to the controls, and 1.37 to her parent's values. We could not define the abnormality but suggest two alternatives: either the patient is trisomic for region q112 to q22 or for the region q22 to q34. If the second alternative is correct the locus for -glucuronidase is possibly assigned to band 7q22.

Copy number variants at Williams–Beuren syndrome 7q11.23 region

Copy number variants (CNVs) of the Williams–Beuren syndrome (WBS) 7q11.23 region are responsible for neurodevelopmental disorders with multi-system involvement and variable expressivity. Typical features of WBS microdeletion comprise a recognizable pattern of facial dysmorphisms, supravalvular aortic stenosis, connective tissue abnormalities, hypercalcemia, and a distinctive neurobehavioral phenotype. Conversely, the phenotype of patients carrying the 7q11.23 reciprocal duplications includes less distinctive facial dysmorphisms and prominent speech delay. The common deletion/duplication ranges in size from 1.5 to 1.8 Mb and encompasses approximately 28 genes. This region is flanked by low copy repeats (LCRs) with greater than ~97% identity, which can mediate non-allelic homologous recombination resulting from misalignment of LCRs during meiosis. A clear genotype–phenotype correlation has been established in WBS only for the elastin gene, which is responsible for the vascular and connective tissue abnormalities. The molecular substrates underlying the other clinical features of 7q11.23 CNVs, including the neurocognitive phenotypes, are still debated. Recent studies suggest that besides the role of the genes in the deleted/duplicated interval, multiple factors such as regulatory sequences, epigenetic mechanisms, parental origin of the CNV, and nucleotide variations in the non-deleted/duplicated allele may be important in determining the variable expressivity of 7q11.23 CNV phenotypes. Here, we review the clinical and molecular findings and the recent insights on genomic disorders associated with CNVs involving the 7q11.23 region.

A 1.35 Mb DNA fragment is inserted into the DHMN1 locus on chromosome 7q34–q36.2

Distal hereditary motor neuropathies predominantly affect the motor neurons of the peripheral nervous system leading to chronic disability. Using whole genome sequencing (WGS) we have identified a novel structural variation (SV) within the distal hereditary motor neuropathy locus on chromosome 7q34–q36.2 (DHMN1). The SV involves the insertion of a 1.35 Mb DNA fragment into the DHMN1 disease locus. The source of the inserted sequence is 2.3 Mb distal to the disease locus at chromosome 7q36.3. The insertion involves the duplication of five genes (LOC389602, RNF32, LMBR1, NOM1, MNX1) and partial duplication of UBE3C. The genomic structure of genes within the DHMN1 locus are not disrupted by the insertion and no disease causing point mutations within the locus were identified. This suggests the novel SV is the most likely DNA mutation disrupting the DHMN1 locus. Due to the size and position of the DNA insertion, the gene(s) directly affected by the genomic re-arrangement remains elusive. Our finding represents a new genetic cause for hereditary motor neuropathies and highlights the growing importance of interrogating the non-coding genome for SV mutations in families which have been excluded for genome wide coding mutations.

A physical map of large segments of pig Chromosome 7q11–q14: comparative analysis with human Chromosome 6p21

The aim of this study was to establish a porcine physical map along the chromosome SSC7q by construction of BAC contigs between microsatellites Sw1409 and S0102. The SLA class II contig, located on SSC7q, was lengthened. Four major BAC contigs and 10 short contigs span a region equivalent to 800 cR measured by IMpRH7000 mapping. The BAC contigs were initiated by PCR screening with primers derived from human orthologous segments, extended by chromosome walking, and controlled and oriented by RH mapping with the two available panels, IMpRH7000Rad and IMNpRH12000Rad. The location of 43 genes was revealed by sequenced segments, either from BAC ends or PCR products from BAC clones. The 220 BAC end sequences (BES) were also used to analyze the different marks of evolution. Comparative mapping analysis between pigs and humans demonstrated that the gene organization on HSA6p21 and on SSC7p11 and q11-q14 segments was conserved during evolution, with the exception of long fragments of HSA6p12 which shuffled and spliced the SLA extended class II region. Additional punctual variations (unique gene insertion/deletion) were observed, even within conserved segments, revealing the evolutionary complexity of this region. In addition, 18 new polymorphic microsatellites have been selected in order to cover the entire SSC7p11-q14 region.     

Inherited translocations in two families (t(14q+;10q−) and t(13q−;21q+))

Summary Two families with reciprocal translocations (t(14q+;10q–) and t(13q–;21q+)) are described. In both families the proband had multiple congenital anomalies and an unbalanced karyotype, 46,XY,14q+ and 46,XX,21q+ respectively. Routine, autoradiographic and fluorescence techniques were used for analysis of karyotype of probands and their relatives. The probands' phenotypes and the results of their family members' dermatoglyphic analysis are presented in detail.

A gene responsible for Ghosal hemato-diaphyseal dysplasia maps to chromosome 7q33–34

Ghosal hemato-diaphyseal dysplasia is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a progressive sclerosing diaphyseal dysplasia and refractory anemia. The pathogenesis and genetic bases of this syndrome remain hitherto unknown. We have performed a genome wide search in two inbred families originating from Algeria and Tunisia. Here, we report on the mapping of a disease gene to chromosome 7q33–34 (Z _max = 4.21 at θ = 0 at locus D7S2513) in a 3.4 Mb defined by loci D7S2560 and AC091742. Ongoing studies will hopefully lead to identification of the disease-causing gene.

Two reciprocal translocations t(9p+;13q−) and t(13q−;21q+)

Summary Two reciprocal balanced translocations 46,XY,t(9;13)(p23;q21) and 46,XX,t(13;21)(q21;q21), identified by RFA- and GTG-banding, are presented along with a complete study of both families.In the second case a 3:1 segregation is associated with an unbalanced 2:2 segregation, as demonstrated in the two surviving sons: one with interchange trisomy 21 and the other with partial trisomy 13 and partial monosomy 21. This suggests that the presence of this translocation, and possibly of other translocations involving morphologically similar chromosomes, could signify a high risk of having chromosomal disorders in offspring.
