Interstitial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 6.
A de novo interstitial deletion of 6q21 was observed in a male baby with moderate microcephaly, facial dysmorphism, and psychomotor retardation. In situ hybridization with a c-myb probe showed that the gene was conserved on the deleted chromosome.
