Localization of 27 DNA markers to the region of human chromosome 22q11-pter deleted in patients with the DiGeorge syndrome and duplicated in the der22 syndrome.
DiGeorge syndrome is a human developmental field defect with the pathological features of an abnormality of embryogenesis at 4 to 6 weeks of gestation. Cytogenetic analyses of patients have revealed a number of instances of monosomy 22q11-pter in this condition. We have analyzed 52 DNA markers that map to 22q11-pter and have found 27 that are deleted in DiGeorge syndrome patients with known monosomy for part of this region and that are duplicated in patients with the der22 syndrome. The set of clones mapping to the DiGeorge region was further assigned to a proximal or a distal location within the deletion.
