Abstract excerpt
We identified a male patient presenting with intellectual disability and agenesis of the corpus callosum, carrying an apparently balanced, reciprocal, de novo translocation t(6;14)(q25.3;q13.2). Breakpoint mapping, using array painting, identified 2 interesting candidate genes, ARID1B and MRPP3, disrupted in the patient. Unexpectedly, the rearrangement produced 3 in-frame reciprocal fusion transcripts that were...
