Abstract excerpt
We studied the case of a subject with an inverted duplication of 40 cM of 2q33-q37 concurrent with a 10 cM deletion of the distal 2q, the latter not being detectable by cytogenetics. Microsatellite analysis demonstrated the absence of maternal alleles in the deleted region and a double dosage for one of the maternal alleles in the duplication region. We hypothesised that this type of rearrangement occurs at...
