Deletion 17q12 and the HNF1B gene
0 Comment
The area 17q12 includes a relatively small ~1.5 Mb segment flanked by similar areas of low-copy repeats. The presence of such an area facilitates the so-called non-allelic homologous recombination. As a result this segment is susceptible to deletions (as well as duplications). Deletions of this area are relatively common with... Read More
