A folate sensitive heritable fragile site at 19p13
Clin Genet.
1985 May.
Abstract
A fragile site at 19p13 was found in the mother of a newborn girl with Downs syndrome. The fragile site was expressed in medium containing low folate and by addition of FdU, whereas high folate, thymidine and thymidine-analogues inhibited the expression. This fragile site may prove valuable for linkage studies on chromosome 19.
