Abstract excerpt
Recent advances in DNA microarray technology have enabled the identification of small alterations throughout the genome. We used standard karyotype analysis, followed by DNA microarray analysis and PCR to precisely map the chromosomal 4p deletion and determine the deletion breakpoints in the genome of an epileptic patient. The karyotype of the patient was 46,XY,del(4)(p15.2p15.3) as determined by G-banding...
