Abstract

Three patients carrying an isodicentric (idic) Y chromosome associated with a mosaic 45,X cell line were studied using molecular techniques. Genotype-phenotype correlations suggested an effect of the 45,X cell line on sexual differentiation. A relationship was established between instability of the idic(Y) chromosome and localization of the breakpoint on Yq, and between azoospermia and deletion of interval 6 on Yq.
