Abstract
We report on 2 relatives with duplication 11q and deletion 5p, resulting from an adjacent-1 segregation of a balanced reciprocal translocation 5p15;11q23, segregating in 4 generations of this family. Twelve out of 16 at-risk relatives of inheriting the translocation were shown to be carriers, giving a significant (p less than .05) 3:1 ratio of carriers/noncarriers. The breakpoint on chromosome 11 at q23 is a folate sensitive fragile site into where the proto-oncogene c-ets has been mapped.Entities:
