| Abstract | We report on a 6-year-old boy referred for cytogenetics study. A few non-specific features were observed in the newborn: hypotonia, failure to thrive, seizures, pre-auricular skin tags. Cat-like cry was not identified. No remarkable facial dysmorphism, gastrointestinal, respiratory or cardiac abnormalities were identified. At age 4 years, speech and motor skill delays were apparent. Karyotyping and FISH analysis revealed a de novo rearranged chromosome 5p, with subtelomeric deletion of 5p and a duplication of the cri-du-chat critical region. Array CGH using sub-megabase resolution tiling-set (SMRT) array followed by FISH analysis with labeled BACs showed a deletion of 5pter to 5p15.31 (0-6.9 Mb) and an inverted duplication of the greater part of 5p15.31 to the distal end of 5p14.3 (6.9-19.9 Mb). Although very rare, inverted duplications with terminal deletion (inv dup del) have been reported at different chromosomal ends. Our finding adds a second patient of inv dup del 5p to this growing list, and the potential causative mechanisms for this rearrangement are discussed. Review of the mapping information of cri-du-chat patients and the comparison with a previously reported patient suggested that the critical region for cat-like cry is located within a 0.6 Mb region. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
