Disease associated balanced chromosome rearrangements (DBCR) causing truncation, deletion, inactivation or over-expression of specific genes are instrumental in identifying and cloning several disease genes and are estimated to be much more common than anticipated. In one survey, the minimal frequency of combined balanced de novo reciprocal translocations and inversions causing abnormal phenotype is estimated to be 0.17%, a sixfold increase compared to the general population suggesting a causative linkage between the abnormality and the observed phenotypic traits. Here, we report two new cases of apparently balanced de novo translocations resulting in developmental delay and dysmorphic features. 相似文献

We report on a girl with psychomotor retardation, severe speech developmental delay and mild dysmorphic features. Molecular cytogenetic analysis showed that the patient was carrier of an insertion (6)(p22.5-->22.4) in chromosome 12. Analysis of the chromosomes of the mother revealed the presence of a complex chromosomal rearrangement. In addition to the insertion (6)(p22.5-->22.4) in chromosome 12 and a pericentric inversion in chromosome 12, the 6p subtelomeric region was absent in the mother. This is, to our knowledge, the smallest pure duplication of chromosome 6p as well as the smallest cryptic subtelomeric 6pter deletion thus far reported. 相似文献

Aims: Sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (SALS) seems to be a multifactorial disease, the pathogenesis of which may involve both genetic and environmental factors. The present study aims at identifying a possible genetic change that confers risk for SALS. Methods: We performed whole-genome screening of a copy-number variation (CNV) using a CNV beadchip, followed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and region-targeted high-density oligonucleotide tiling microarray. Results: Within the 40-kb region on 10p15.3 subtelomere, which harbours two genes encoding isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase 1 (IDI1) and IDI2, we found a segmental copy-number gain in a large proportion of SALS patients. qPCR analysis demonstrated the copy-number gain in 46 out of 83 SALS patients, as compared with 10 out of 99 controls (p = 4.86 × 10−11, Odds Ratio 10.8); subsequent tiling microarray validated qPCR results and elucidated the fine structure of segmental gains. Conclusions: A segmental copy-number gain in the IDI1/IDI2 gene region may play a significant role in the pathogenesis of SALS. 相似文献
