Journal ArticleDOI

Aberrant interchromosomal exchanges are the predominant cause of the 22q11.2 deletion

TL;DR: The data are consistent with significant aberrant interchromosomal exchange events during meiosis I in the proximal region of the affected chromosome 22 as the likely etiology for the deletion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of a functional COMT polymorphism on prefrontal cognitive function in patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome.

TL;DR: Data from this study are consistent with those of previous studies in normal individuals, suggesting that a functional genetic polymorphism in the 22q11 region may influence prefrontal cognition in individuals with COMT haploinsufficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Comt Genotype on Behavioral Symptomatology in the 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome

TL;DR: Results indicated that the Val genotype was associated with significantly greater internalizing and externalizing behavioral symptomatology in children with 22q11.2 deletions, and suggested that a functional genetic polymorphism in the 22q 11 region may influence behavior in individuals with COMT haploinsufficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Independent de novo 22q11.2 deletions in first cousins with DiGeorge/velocardiofacial syndrome.

TL;DR: It is concluded that germline mosaicism as the underlying mechanism for affected cousins in these families was unlikely and relatives of affected individuals may benefit from genetic counselling and consider prenatal testing for the 22q11.2 deletion in future pregnancies, despite a low recurrence risk.
