Background Inversions are balanced structural chromosome rearrangements, which can
influence gene expression and the risk of unbalanced chromosome constitution in offspring …

We identified a paracentric inversion of chromosome 10 [inv (10)(q11. 22q21. 1)] in 0.20% of
Swedish individuals (15/7,439) referred for cytogenetic analysis. A retrospective analysis of …

Introduction: The term inversion refers to an aberration caused by two breakage-and fusion-
events found in one or both arms of a chromosome. The presence of such aberrations can …

We report on a comparative molecular cytogenetic and in silico study on evolutionary
changes in human chromosome 7 homologs in all major primate lineages. The ancestral …

A number of findings revealed that chromosome inversions are more frequent than deduced
from classical cytogenetic studies. Indeed, some paracentric cryptic inversions have been …

Pericentric inversions involving the secondary constriction (qh) region of chromosome 9 are
considered to be normal variants. The evolutionary mechanisms and conservation of these …

Inversions comprise approximately 10% of structural aberrations, with pericentric inversions
clearly outnumbering paracentric rearrangements (66% as compared to 34%), due in part to …

Background: The chromosomal polymorphism of short arms of acrocentric chromosomes
and heterochromatin variation of Chromosomes 1, 9, 16 and Y have been reported in …

Pericentric inversion of chromosome 2 was detected in four unrelated families. All these
inversions involved the segment p11← q13. The pedigree data are considered in …
