Using high-resolution banding techniques, Sq31 has been identified as the most common cytogenetically deleted segment in 91 out of 93 patients with Sq deletion [12]. This segment corresponds to 17Mb of DNA. As shown in figure 1, a unique and striking cluster of genes, which govern normal hematolymphoid growth and differentiation, has been fine mapped to reside within a few mega bases of each other on band Sq31 [13,14]. 3. Molecular delineation of the critical region Is the smallest region of overlap (SRO) common to both the Sq- syndrome and MDS/AML, or is there more than a single critical gene on Sq31?
