Perfect endings: a review of subtelomeric probes and their use in clinical diagnosis
1 Jun 2000
Abstract excerpt
Chromosomal rearrangements involving the ends of chromosomes (telomeres) are emerging as an important cause of human genetic diseases. This review describes the development of first and second generation sets of telomere specific clones, together with advances in fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) technology, which have made the prospect of screening for telomeric rearrangements a realistic goal.
