Molecular detection of a Yp/18 translocation in a 45,X holoprosencephalic male

Abstract: Prenatal diagnosis in a fetus with holoprosencephaly showed a 45,X karyotype and a suspected 18p abnormality. At birth, the fetus presented with normal male genitalia. Y chromatin was not cytogenetically detectable by Q-, G-, or G11-banding. Mosaicism for a cell line containing a Y chromosome was not observed in amniocytes, lymphocytes, or skin fibroblasts. Southern blot analysis for 11 different Y-DNA loci demonstrated the presence in the patient's genome of sequences derived from the short arm, centromeric r… Show more

“…In our proband (case 12), none of the loci from Yq has been detected and we assume a breakpoint in the proximal part of the long arm or within the centromeric Magenis et al 1987Vignetti et al 1977Seidel et al 1981Weber et al 1987Turleau et al 1980Andersson et al 1988Andersson et al 1988Schempp et al 1985Gal et al 1987Subrt and Blehova 1974Andersson et al 1988Disteche et al 1986Maserati et al 1986Mtinke et al 1988Callen et al 1987 This study region of the Y chromosome. So far, two further cases with a similar breakpoint on the Y chromosome have been reported (cases 5 and 10; Table 2).…”

“…The few Y autosome translocations identified in phenotypic males with 45,X complement have resulted from the translocation of a part of the Y chromosome onto terminal regions of other chromosomes [Abbas et al, 1990;Abuelo and Barsel-Bower, 1988;Affara et al, 1987;Andersson et al, 1988;de la Chapelle et al, 1986;Davies et al, 1990;Distèche et al, 1986;Gal et al, 1987;Gimelli et al, 1996;Lau et al, 1985;Mü nke et al, 1988;Sasagawa et al, 1993;Sheehy et al, 1985;Van Hemel et al, 1992;Weber et al, 1987]. Furthermore, in most of these cases, the break in Y was identified to be in the proximal Yq region and resulted in the formation of dic der(Y/autosome).…”

“…Mental retardation and multiple congenital abnormalities are more common if the translocation is with a non-acrocentric chromosome. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] The patients with Y; acrosentric chromosome translocation usually suffer from infertility due to azoospermia or oligozoospermia. [25][26][27][28][29] In our patient, there is a dicentric chromosome with an unbalanced translocation between q12 region of Y chromosome and p10 region of chromosome 21 which results in loss of heterochromatic region of Y chromosome.…”
