Analysis of banding patterns and mosaic configurations in a case of ring chromosome 15. 1978

M Schmid, and I Henrichs, and H Nestler, and H Knörr-Gärtner, and W M Teller, and W Krone

Cytogenetic studies on lymphocytes from a 14-year-old mentally retarded girl with somatic anomalies suggestive of a chromosomal abnormality revealed a ring chromosome 15. The long arm of the defective chromosome is broken at band q24 or q25. The silver staining technique for nucleolus organizer regions showed that the ring had lost the achromatic stalk and the satellite. The chromosomal mosaicism resulting from the structural instability of the ring chromosome was analyzed and compared with 6 cases reported in the literature. It is proposed that the clinical manifestations in the different patients with ring chromosome 15 result from both the deficiency in the long arm and the mosaic configurations.

D007621 Karyotyping Mapping of the KARYOTYPE of a cell. Karyotype Analysis Methods,Analysis Method, Karyotype,Analysis Methods, Karyotype,Karyotype Analysis Method,Karyotypings,Method, Karyotype Analysis,Methods, Karyotype Analysis
D008607 Intellectual Disability Subnormal intellectual functioning which originates during the developmental period. This has multiple potential etiologies, including genetic defects and perinatal insults. Intelligence quotient (IQ) scores are commonly used to determine whether an individual has an intellectual disability. IQ scores between 70 and 79 are in the borderline range. Scores below 67 are in the disabled range.
