Molecular characterization of a Y;15 translocation segregating in a family.

Abstract:

:We have used Y-specific and Y-derived DNA probes for in situ hybridization and Southern blotting analysis to characterize a Y;15 translocation showing normal Mendelian inheritance in a family. Cytogenetically there appeared to be an unbalanced translocation of Yqh to 15p; this translocation may be considered as a prototype of those translocations between Yq and the short arm of an acrocentric chromosome which have a population incidence of approximately 1 in 2,000. Our molecular studies showed that, in all probability, the breakpoints were near the border between Yq11.23 and Yq12, and in 15p11, respectively; the translocation is abbreviated t(Y;15)(q12;p11). Using the Y-specific probe pY431 in a quantitative Southern hybridization assay, normal females had no hybridization, female carriers and normal men had the same amount, and male carriers had twice that amount. Cytogenetic analysis and quantitative in situ hybridization using probes pY431 and pY3.4 were consistent with the hypothesis that the portion of Yq translocated to 15p comprised all of Yq12 and none of Yq11. The absence of Southern hybridization with probes specific for Yp and Yq11 confirmed this observation. Even though the family was ascertained through two brothers who both had schizophrenia and were carriers of the translocation, the clinical evaluation of a total of nine individuals with the translocation and five without it did not suggest its association with an abnormal phenotype.
