Hunt for Chromosomal Errors Which Cause Genetic Diseases
...udy, the researchers studied samples from 10 patients with multiple congenital anomalies, all of whom had previously normal results from karyotype and subtelomeric testing. The team identified novel submicroscopic deletions in two patients. These deletions, one on chromosome 1 and the other on chromosome 3, were ...Chromosome FISH, Subtelomeric Multiprobe Analysis

...re copied during evolution. Segmental duplications, which emerged during the past 30 million years of primate evolution, are significantly enriched in subtelomeric and pericentromeric sequences, and now comprise approximately 5% of the human genome, were considered to be one of the biggest obstacles to finishing ...
