Also known as:

Comments: The deletion length is estimated to be between 172-283 kb (positions 5129617-5301811, according to the UCSC Genome Browser, March 2006). This deletion removes the entire β cluster, from the OR51B2 to OR52A1 olfactory receptor genes flanking the cluster in the 5' and 3' regions, respectively. The 5' breakpoint of this deletion is between the OR51M1 and OR51B2 genes, while the 3' breakpoint is between the OR52A1 gene and 25257 nt downstream of the OR52A5 gene. Analysis method: MLPA P102 C1 HBB kit (MRC Holland).

We follow the HGVS sequence variant nomenclature and IUPAC standards.
