Abstract

The cause of mental retardation in one-third to one-half of all affected individuals is unknown. Microscopically detectable chromosomal abnormalities are the most frequently recognized cause, but gain or loss of chromosomal segments that are too small to be seen by conventional cytogenetic analysis has been found to be another important cause. Array-based methods offer a practical means of performing a high-resolution survey of the entire genome for submicroscopic copy-number variants. We studied 100 children with idiopathic mental retardation and normal results of standard chromosomal analysis, by use of whole-genome sampling analysis with Affymetrix GeneChip Human Mapping 100K arrays. We found de novo deletions as small as 178 kb in eight cases, de novo duplications as small as 1.1 Mb in two cases, and unsuspected mosaic trisomy 9 in another case. This technology can detect at least twice as many potentially pathogenic de novo copy-number variants as conventional cytogenetic analysis can in people with mental retardation.

A CNV on chromosome 2 in the affected child of family 7551. A, dChip-smoothed copy-number (CN) estimate with a window of 38 SNPs, showing a 1-copy deletion. B, Diagram showing t scores calculated for a sliding window of 38 SNPs that compare the copy number estimated by dChip for SNPs within the window with the copy number estimated for all other SNPs on the same chromosome. The high (negative) t scores associated with the deletion indicate that this deviation in copy number is unlikely to have occurred by chance. In both panels, the _X_-axis shows the nucleotide position in Mb.

Inherited CNV demonstrated by WGSA with Mapping 100K arrays. A, Plot of t scores for chromosome 2 in father, mother, and child in family 0674, by use of a 21-SNP window. The SNPs are ordered along the _X_-axis from pter to qter, with the location shown in Mb. The child with MR inherited the CNV (blue oval) from his unaffected father. B, FISH confirmation of the inherited CNV on 2q34. In the father and child, one chromosome 2 (white arrowheads) lacks a signal for probe RP11-93G7, whereas the signal is present on the other chromosome 2 (red arrowheads). In the mother, the signal for probe RP11-93G7 is seen on both chromosomes 2 (red arrowheads).

The SNPs are ordered along the _X_-axis from pter to qter, with the location shown in Mb. B, FISH confirmation of the CNV in the affected child by use of probe RP11-1151G3. The white arrowhead indicates the deletion-containing chromosome 2 without the signal. The green arrowhead indicates the normal homologue, which shows the signal.

De novo submicroscopic genomic duplication, dup(16)(p13.3p13.3), identified by WGSA with Mapping 100K arrays in family 4794. A, The t scores for the CNV in comparison with the rest of the chromosome, by use of a window size of 20 SNPs. The SNPs are ordered along the _X_-axis from pter to qter, with the location shown in Mb. The de novo CNV is shown inside the blue oval. B, FISH confirmation of the CNV in the affected child, by use of probe G248P82513E10 in metaphase cells (left) and probe RP11-397B22 in interphase cells (right). In the metaphase spread, the duplication is indicated by the red arrowhead, and the normal chromosome is indicated by the blue arrowhead. The signal is duplicated on one chromosome 16.

De novo submicroscopic genomic duplication, dup(17)(q21.33q21.33), identified by WGSA with Mapping 100K arrays in family 6168. A, The t scores for each CNV in comparison with the rest of the chromosome, by use of a window size of 8 SNPs. The SNPs are ordered along the _X_-axis from pter to qter, with the location shown in Mb. The de novo CNV is shown inside the blue oval. B, FISH confirmation of the CNV in the affected child, by use of probes RP11-962N5 (green) and RP11-121F10 (red) in metaphase (left) and interphase (right) cells. In the metaphase spread, the duplication is shown at the red arrowhead, and the normal chromosome is shown at the blue arrowhead. The red signal is duplicated on one chromosome 17; the green signal does not appear duplicated but cross-hybrizes to chromosome 6qter.
