Cystic fibrosis (CF) is mainly caused by small molecular lesions of the CFTR gene; mutation detection methods based on conventional PCR do not allow the identification of all CF alleles in a population and large deletions may account for a number of these unidentified molecular lesions. It is only r

## Abstract Dupliconβmediated microdeletions around the __NF1__ gene are frequently associated with a severe form of neurofibromatosis type I in a subgroup of patients who show an earlier onset of cutaneous neurofibromas, dysmorphic facial features, and lower IQ values. To clarify the discrepancies
We studied 20 unrelated NF1 patients by Southern blots with seven cDNA probes and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis with four intragenic microsatellites (IVS26-2.3, IVS27AC28.4, IVS27AC33.1, and IVS38GT53.0). Four novel large deletions (178, 184, 236, and 237) have been identified and characteri
In this paper, we describe the physical map and transcriptional organisation of a 100-kb region with the BRCAI locus at 17q12-21. Using the cDNA of the EDH17B2 gene as a probe, we screened a human genomic cosmid library. Positive cosmid clones were aligned and a contig around the EDHI7B2 gene was es
The basal cell nevus syndrome (Gorlin syndrome) is characterized by multiple basal cell carcinomas and diverse developmental defects. The gene responsible for this syndrome has been mapped previously to a 2 cM interval between D9S196 and D9S180 at 9q22.3, and very recently mutations of a candidate g
