Paracentric inversion 11q in Canadian Hutterites

Hum Genet. 1992 Jun;89(4):450-2. doi: 10.1007/BF00194321.

Abstract

Four Canadian Hutterite families were found to carry the paracentric inversion inv(11)(q21q23). We did not document any adverse effects that could be directly attributable to this inversion. It is possible that the mutation that caused this inversion is the same mutation hypothesized as the cause of the inversion in families from the Netherlands.
