GENOMIC REARRANGEMENTS AND HUMAN PATHOLOGIES In these syndromes, a majority of patients have rearrangements of the same size. 1- What are the chromosomal mechanisms leading to recurrent genomic rearrangements ? 2- Is this recurrence due to a particularstructure of the genome in these regions ?

NF1 gene (Lopez-Correa et al., 2000) Origin of deletions in 17q11 responsible for Neurofibromatosis type 1 • NF1:: • 5-10% of patients: deletion • of 1.5 Mb; • NF1-REP~100 kb, 98% homol. The deletions in the NF1 region are predominantly of maternal origin and inter-homologue
Chromosomal mechanisms in other syndromes with deletions The 4 types of mechanisms are found in the other syndromes The influence of the gender of the transmitting parent is not observed Only the chromosomal mechanisms occurring in 17p11.2 depend on the gender of the transmitting parent

Study of mechanisms of DNA exchange in the 17p11.2 région • Conversions are associated with crossing-overs (36%) Double-strand break repair model • This model can be applied to inter- or intrachromosomal rearrangements, to paternal as well as maternal meiosis The double-strand break repair model is a universal mechanism for DNA exchange from Yeast to Humans

Factors which promote recombinations Homology between sequences:proximal et distal CMT1A-REPs (98,7%) the NsiI-EcoRI region do not have a greaer homology The chromatin structure: the sites for initiating recombination are often located in the 5’ promoter region of genes (S. cerevisiae) the NsiI-EcoRI region is located in intron V of the COX10 gene
