چکیده

A brother and sister are reported with developmental delay and facial features suggestive of the Cornelia de Lange syndrome. Cytogenetic analysis showed them to be trisomic for the region 3q25.1-26.2 because of the inheritance of an unbalanced interchromosomal insertion from their father, who was a balanced insertion carrier. The clinical phenotype and cytogenetic analysis (including chromosome painting studies) in relation to the possible localisation of the Cornelia de Lange gene are discussed.

et al,5 respectively. To identify the IVS 1 (-13T-*G) mutation, two PCR primer sets were designed, based on the amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) described by Newton et al.6 The first set amplifies specifically the wild type allele, the second set the IVS1(-13T-G) allele (figure). The frequencies of the three mutant alleles are given in table 1. Our data confirm those of Huie et a...
