摘要:
We report on a male with mild learning disabilities who has a supernumerary marker chromosome. The marker chromosome was defined by fluorescence in situ hybridization as a ring X chromosome with breakpoints in the juxacentromeric region. Replication studies suggest that the ring X is late-replicating. However XIST, a gene in the X inactivation centre interval which is expressed exclusively from the inactive X chromosome, is not present on the marker, nor is it expressed in the patient's cells. These results are discussed with respect to karyotype-phenotype correlations and X inactivation. (C) 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
