Clinical, chromosomal and enzymatic studies in four cases of rearrangements of chromosome 7

Clin Genet. 1985 Jun;27(6):564-9. doi: 10.1111/j.1399-0004.1985.tb02041.x.

Abstract

We report here four cases of unbalanced chromosomal rearrangements involving partial monosomies and trisomies of chromosome 7. The quantitative expression of diaphorase 2 (DIA-2), beta-glucuronidase (GUS-beta) and argino-succinate-lyase (ASL) were measured in these patients and compared with controls. The results suggest that the DIA-2 locus is in the band 7p221----q21, the GUS-beta locus in the band 7p22----q21 and the ASL locus in the band 7p221----q22.
