Use of targeted array‐based CGH for the clinical diagnosis of chromosomal imbalance: Is less more?

Abstract: Chromosome analysis is an important component to the diagnosis of congenital anomalies, developmental delay, and mental retardation. Routine chromosome analysis identifies aneuploidy and structural rearrangements greater than 5 Mb but cannot identify abnormalities of the telomeric regions or microdeletions reliably. Molecular cytogenetic techniques were developed to overcome these limitations. High-resolution comparative genomic hybridization (CGH)-based microarrays (array CGH) were developed to increase the r… Show more

“…17 -19 Recently, targeted array-based GCH was developed for medical applications but its cost limits its use in medical genetics laboratories. 35 Finally, MLPA (multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification), represents a powerful technique to detect copy-number changes, including those resulting from subtelomeric rearrangements. 36 Therefore, we consider that molecular methods, such as QMPSF or MLPA, represent efficient multilocus diagnostic tools zooming in on regions that have been identified as targets for microdeletions and microduplications involved in MR. Our present experience with other applications of these methods indicates that both provide similar sensitivity of detection.…”

“…16 The current version of the SignatureChip, the SignatureChip Whole Genome ® (SignatureChipWG), contains 4670 BACs representing 1543 loci with each locus represented by a minimum of three overlapping clones. The subtelomeric and pericentromeric regions are represented with a higher density of overlapping BAC clones, targeted to the unique sequences adjacent to these repetitive regions and consisting of contigs of clones located approximately every 0.5 Mb spanning Ͼ5 Mb.…”

“…Targeted bacterial artificial chromosome-based microarray analysis was originally performed on DNA from subjects 1, 2, and 3 as previously described. 24 Whole-genome bacterial artificial chromosome-based microarray analysis was originally performed on DNA from subject 4 as previously described. 17 Oligonucleotide-based microarray analysis was originally performed on DNA from subjects 5, 6, and 7 using a custom 12-plex 135K-feature whole-genome oligonucleotide microarray (SignatureChip Oligo Solution v2.0, custom-designed by Signature Genomic Laboratories, Spokane, WA, and manufactured by Roche NimbleGen, Madison, WI) using previously described methods.…”
