Popis: | A mentally retarded male was found to be homozygous for a paracentric inversion of the long arm of chromosome 12(inv(12)(q21.1q23.2)). His parents, who are first cousins, and his phenotypically normal younger brother are inversion heterozygotes. Homozygous structural rearrangements are discussed and cases of paracentric inversions, including a further nine previously unpublished, are reviewed. |
