β¦ Synopsis
The case of a newborn girl with Zellweger syndrome and a pericentric inversion of chromosome 7, 46,XX, inv(7)(p12q11.23), is reported. The diagnosis was confirmed by marked deficiency of peroxisomal beta-oxidation enzymes in hepatic cells from autopsy samples. This is the second case of Zellweger syndrome associated with a rearrangement of chromosome 7, the tentative gene assignment to 7q11 being further supported; the gene is probably confiend to 7q11.23.

The XmnI genotype at the apolipoprotein A-I locus was heterozygous in a boy with partial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 11, del(11)(q23.3----qter). The apolipoprotein A-I gene, previously assigned to chromosome region 11q23----q24, has been more specifically localized to 11q23 by excluding t
