Abstract

A mentally retarded male with dysmorphic features was found to have a de novo 46,XY,inv dup(8) (p.23.1 → 12). Confirmation of the segments duplicated in the rearrangement was achieved by biochemical analysis of glutathione reductase, which maps to 8p21.1, and DNA studies using the chromosome specific probe y-19-1D (D85131), which maps to 8p21. Assay of cathepsin B, which has been localised to ...
