Method of detecting genetic deletions and mutations associated with DiGeorge syndrome, Velocardiofacial syndrome, charge association, conotruncal cardiac defect, and cleft palate and probes useful therefor
Method of detecting genetic deletions and mutations associated with DiGeorge syndrome, Velocardiofacial syndrome, charge association, conotruncal cardiac defect, and cleft palate and probes useful therefor
There is provided by this invention methods of detecting genetic deletions and mutations associated with at least one condition selected from the group consisting of DiGeorge syndrome, Velocardiofacial syndrome, CHARGE association, conotruncal cardiac defect, and cleft palate in a human patient comprising the steps of providing a DNA containing test sample from said human patient; identifying whether there are less than two functional copies of the DiGeorge syndrome critical region loci, whereby said identification of less than two copies of the DiGeorge syndrome critical region loci is indicative of a likelihood that said person has at least one of DiGeorge syndrome, Velocardiofacial syndrome, CHARGE association, conotruncal cardiac defect, and cleft palate. Probes and primers useful in the invention are also provided as are diagnostic kits.
