Abstract
A panel of ordered YAC clones, isolated using STSs in the Xq13-Xq23 re gion, was used to characterize by Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization (F ISH) the Xq21 breakpoint in a t(X;1)(q21;p34) translocation female wit h premature ovarian failure. The YAC 949E11 was found to span the brea kpoint, but also to join the two non-overlapping YACs 36CB1 and 40AB3, proximal and distal, respectively, to the patient's Xq21 breakpoint.
