Whole-chromosome arm acquired uniparental disomy in cancer development is a consequence of isochromosome formation [PDF]

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2022
Using SNP-based microarray data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we investigated isochromosomes (deletion of one arm and duplication of the other arm) and related acquired uniparental disomy in 12 tumor types.

Uniparental disomy screen of Irish rare disorder cohort unmasks homozygous variants of clinical significance in the TMCO1 and PRKRA genes [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
A uniparental disomy (UPD) screen using whole genome sequencing (WGS) data from 164 trios with rare disorders in the Irish population was performed to identify large runs of homozygosity of uniparental origin that may harbour deleterious recessive ...

Maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 7 underlying argininosuccinic aciduria and Silver-Russell syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Genome Variation, 2022
We describe a patient presenting with argininosuccinic aciduria and Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS). SRS was caused by maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 7 (UPD(7)mat).

Uniparental disomy is a chromosomic disorder in the first place [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics, 2022
Background Uniparental disomy (UPD) is well-known to be closely intermingled with imprinting disorders. Besides, UPD can lead to a disease by ‘activation’ of a recessive gene mutation or due to incomplete (cryptic) trisomic rescue.

Reciprocal uniparental disomy in yeast [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012
In the diploid cells of most organisms, including humans, each chromosome is usually distinguishable from its partner homolog by multiple single-nucleotide polymorphisms. One common type of genetic alteration observed in tumor cells is uniparental disomy (UPD), in which a pair of homologous chromosomes are derived from a single ...

Clinical Application of an Innovative Multiplex-Fluorescent-Labeled STRs Assay for Prader-Willi Syndrome and Angelman Syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and Angelman syndrome (AS) are two clinically distinct neurodevelopmental disorders caused by absence of paternally or maternally expressed imprinted genes on chr15q11.2-q13.3.

Copy number variation analysis in 189 Romanian patients with global developmental delay/intellectual disability

open access: yesItalian Journal of Pediatrics, 2022
Background Developmental delay and intellectual disability represent a common pathology in general population, involving about 3% of the pediatric age population, the genetic etiology being often involved.

Pathogenesis and Consequences of Uniparental Disomy in Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cancer Research, 2011
Abstract The systematic application of new genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism arrays has demonstrated that somatically acquired regions of loss of heterozygosity without changes in copy number frequently occur in many types of cancer. Until recently, the ubiquity of this type of chromosomal defect had gone unrecognized because
