Fragile site in chromosome 12 in a patient with two miscarriages

G Stetten et al. Am J Med Genet. 1988 Nov.

Abstract

A heritable fragile site at 12q13 is described in lymphocytes from a woman with a history of multiple miscarriage. The fragile site was not typically folate-sensitive, being expressed in standard medium. The presence of this fragile site may have led to meiotic chromosome breakage and consequent infertility.
