1.Examples of Genomic Imbalances Detected by a CMA but Not by G-Banded
Karyotyping(A) A 10.9 Mb deletion, including more than 60 genes. The
deletion includes the Williams-Beuren syndrome region at chromosome region
7q11 but extends beyond the typical breakpoints for this syndrome. The arrow
is pointing to the deleted chromosome that was observed by retrospective
analysis of G-banded slides. (B) A 7.2 Mb duplication on the long arm of
chromosome 11. Again, the arrow is pointing to the chromosome that has the
duplication shown by the darker G-positive band.
