A maternal de novo non-reciprocal translocation results in a 6q13-q16 deletion in one offspring and a 6q13-q16 duplication in another.

Abstract excerpt

Here we report a case of two siblings with reciprocal aberrations, one presenting with a deletion and the other carrying two novel duplications at 6q13q16.1. Interestingly, both alterations were inherited from a healthy mother carrying a non-reciprocal translocation of 6q13q16 to 15q11. Deletions at 6q13q16.1 have been previously described; however this is the first characterisation of a 6q13q16.1 duplication. In...
