Project description:Profiling the genomic profiles of mental retardation patients. 13 mental retardation patients were selected for detection of genomic aberrations.
Project description:In the study we present a multicenter study in which three European diagnostic centres assessed the use of Affymetrix Mapping 500k SNP arrays for molecular karyotyping in patients with mental retardation. Each centre tested DNA from 40 patients with unexplained mental retardation together with their parents. In addition, 38 DNA samples containing known submicroscopic copy number variations (CNVs) were run for validation purposes.
Project description:Profiling the genomic profiles of mental retardation patients. 13 mental retardation patients were selected for detection of genomic aberrations. Patient's DNA were hybridized against Promega control on Agilent G4426B arrays and scanned with the Agilent G2505B scanner.

Project description:We report a deletion on 11q13.3-q13.4 in one patients with severe mental retardation. We analyzed a patient with mental retardation and the related parents with a whole genome SNP Array.
