✦ Synopsis

Two males and two females with different but overlapping deletions on the proximal long arm of the X chromosomes have been investigated. Their karyotypes, which have been well characterized by high resolution banding techniques, are 46,Y,del(X)(pter----q21.1::q21.33----qter); 46,Y,del(X)(pter----q21.2::q21.31----qter); 46,X,del(X)(pter----q21.31::q24.3----qter) and 46,X,del(X)(pter----q21.1:). A deletion panel, which makes it possible to subdivide the long arm of the X chromosome into seven subregions, has been established using the genomic DNA from the four families, and applied to the fine subregional localization of the loci for 22 DNA probes. Based on the results obtained, the possible location of the loci in question has been narrowed down considerably, in some cases to an area of only 5% of the previously assigned region; hybridization to Southern blots of a panel with well-characterized chromosome deletions is thus a powerful means of localizing DNA probes, especially with respect to the X probes.

Cytogenetic and molecular genetic analyses have shown that a tumor-suppressor gene for human meningioma is located on the long arm of chromosome 22. Recently, somatic mutations of the NF2 gene have been identified in sporadic meningiomas. However, tumorigenesis of certain cases of meningioma cannot

In two unrelated families, males have been identified who suffer from choroideremia and at the same time have an interstitial deletion on the proximal long arm of the X chromosome. By high-resolution banding we have characterized the deletion chromosomes as del(X)(q21.1-q21.33) and del(X)(q21.2-q21.

We have previously described the cytogenetic analysis of two patients with Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome (GCPS) and various microdeletions on the short arm of Chromosome (Chr) 7. Using genes and anonymous DNA probes from 7p we analyzed the DNA of our patients for loss of heterozygosity, or we

## Abstract We describe a 3‐year‐old male with deletion of part of 6q. The karyotype was 46,XY,del(6q) in both lymphocytes and skin fibroblasts. The patient had: frontal bossing, epicanthal folds, broad nasal bridge, apparently low‐set and posteriorly angulated ears, micrognathia, cardiac defects,
