Abstract

Copy number variants (CNVs) are a major contribution to genome variability, and the presence of CNVs on chromosome 1 is a known cause of morbidity. The main objective of this study was to contribute to chromosome 1 disease map, through the analysis of patients with chromosome 1 CNVs.

A cross-sectional study was performed using the array comparative genomic hybridization database of the Genetic Department of the Faculty of Medicine. Patients with pathogenic (P) or likely pathogenic (LP) CNVs on chromosome 1 were selected for the study. Clinical information was collected for all patients. Databases and related literature were used for genotype–phenotype correlation.

From a total of 2,516 patients included in the database we identified 24 patients (0.95%) with P (9 patients) or LP (15 patients) CNVs on chromosome 1. These CNVs account for 6.1% (24/392 CNVs) of the total P/LP CNVs in the database. Most common CNVs found were in the 1q21.1–1q21.2 region.

This study reinforces the association between chromosome 1 CNV and neurodevelopmental disorders and craniofacial dysmorphisms. Additionally, it also strengthened the idea that CNVs interpretation is not always a linear task due to the broad spectrum of variants that can be identified between benign and clearly pathogenic CNVs.
