The most common fragile site in man is 3p14.

Abstract:

:In man a common fragile site is known to occur at 3p14. We studied the expression of this fragility in a group of 70 normal healthy subjects. Chromosome breaks, chromatid breaks and gaps at 3p14 could be observed in every examined individual, and in a total of 7000 metaphases they were seen in a mean of 4% of cells. Fluorescence studies in ten persons with chromosome No. 3 polymorphism showed that in all cases both Nos. 3 were about equally liable to breakage. A considerable variation in the fra 3p14 expression was found between individuals as well as in repeated cultures from the same person. Neither sex nor age influences could be detected. Cultures with a high percentage of lesions at 3p14 tended to have also a high number of lesions at other sites. Methotrexate and fluorodeoxyuridine markedly enhanced the expression of fra 3p14 and other fragilities. It is concluded that the chromosomal region at 3p14 represents man's most common fragile site, the expression of which seems to be influenced by environmental and heritable factors.
