Parental origin of the X chromosome in a patient with a Robertsonian translocation and Turner's syndrome.
We report on a proband with both a Robertsonian translocation and Turner's syndrome. Study of the parental origin of the X chromosome performed by microsatellite analysis indicates paternal origin of the X chromosome (Xpat). The occurrence of chromosome aberrations as a consequence of interchromosomal interactions is discussed.
