We report on the molecular characterization of a translocation t(1;19)(q21.3;q13.2) in a female with mental retardation, ataxia and atrophy of the brain. Sequence analysis of the breakpoints revealed an ALU:-repeat-mediated mechanism of recombination that led to truncation of two genes: the kinas...
