ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to novel methods of optimally analyzing commonly obtained prenatal cell samples by in situ hybridization. In addition, this method diagnoses gene deletion and gene multiplication using multicolor in situ hybridization. A method is also provided to use multicolor in situ hybridization to identify chromosomal haplotypes co-segregating with disease-related genetic alterations and with normal genes. This haplotype in situ protocol simplifies haplotype segregation analysis in pedigrees.
