abstract：:Deletions in 17q11.2 affecting the NF1 gene and surrounding regions occur in 5% of patients with NF1. The two major types of NF1 deletions encompass 1.4-Mb and 1.2-Mb, respectively, and have breakpoints in the NF1 low-copy repeats or in the JJAZ gene and its pseudogene. Deletions larger than 1.4-Mb are rare, and only ...
