Narrowing the deleted region associated with the 15q21 syndrome.

Abstract:

:Interstitial deletions of chromosome 15q, not involving the PWS/AS region, are uncommon and poorly characterized. Few cases defined at the cytogenetic level have been reported with 15q21 deletions and characteristic facial dysmorphisms are present in all them. We report on the molecular characterization by array-CGH of a new patient with a 15q21 deletion and on the redefinition of a second patient previously studied with multicolor banding. The two deletions resulted to be similar and involve about 12 and 8 Mb, respectively. Our study might promote to delineate a better genotype-phenotype correlation associated with 15q21 deletions.
