A BrdU-requiring fragile site on chromosome 12.

I Voiculescu1, C Hausmann, G Wolff, E Back.   

Abstract

A BrdU-requiring fragile site, fra(12)(q24.2), on human chromosome 12 of some individuals is reported. This fragile site is inherited in a Mendelian codominant fashion and does not seem to be associated with any physical or mental abnormality in carriers. It was mostly observed as a chromatid gap: no acentric fragments, triradials or deleted chromosomes were found. The fra(12)(q24.2) was expressed in 34%-48% of metaphases in lymphocyte cultures from carriers when BrdU and FdU were added 6.5 h before harvest, while the expression ranged between 5% and 20% when the cultures were treated with BrdU alone. The fra(12)(q24.2) represents the second BrdU-requiring rare fragile site described on human chromosomes.
