Abstract excerpt
Segmental copy-number variations (CNVs) may contribute to genetic variation in humans. In this study, we examined 80 unrelated Japanese individuals using a microarray (2,238 Bac-clones) based comparative genomic hybridization (array-CGH) assay. We found a total of 251 CNVs at 30 different regions in the genome; of these, 14 (termed 'rare' CNVs) were found individually located within distinct genomic regions of 14...
