Examples
-
The combined measurement of both allelic ratios and normalized intensities provides enhanced detectability of aberrations and allows identification of copy-neutral genetic anomalies, such as uniparental disomy and mitotic recombination.
GEN News Highlights 2009
-
We can diagnose numerous single gene disorders, both dominant and recessive, as well as cases of uniparental disomy.
Cytogenomics Lab 2010
-
We can also determine parent of origin for deletions and uniparental disomy.

Recent advances in genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analyses have revealed previously unrecognized microdeletions and uniparental disomy (UPD) in a broad spectrum of human cancers.

-
This hypothesis is substantiated by new findings of complex chromosomal imbalances involving not only whole chromosomal aneuploidies and uniparental disomies but also segmental deletions, duplications, and amplifications in human cleavage-stage Scheme for the development of somatic CNV mosaicism.

The number of annotated copy number neutral LOHs (or uniparental disomies (UPDs)) was 211, with a median length of 235 kb and coverage of 10 Mb per cell line.

The frequencies of different subtypes in PWS are usually given in literature as 70 maternal uniparental disomy (mUPD) and 3-5% others (imprinting centre (IC) defects and translocations).

-
In addition, SNP arrays can identify copy number neutral aberrations showing LOH, such as gene conversions and uniparental isodisomies.

In contrast, PDP-FISH has been reported for three CNV loci using fosmid probes, which distinguish signal presence and absence rather than signal intensity differences pod-FISH has already been successfully used to identify the parental origin of individual derivative chromosomes, such as the characterization of chimerism and uniparental disomy 15
