File:FISH using HIRA probe.jpeg

Image Information

An image obtained with Fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) using a HIRA probe. The orange signal shows the locus at 22q11.2 (showing one copy), the green signal shows chromosome 22q13 as a control (showing 2 copies). The absence of two orange signals illustrates a deletion of a locus at 22q11.2, which is characteristic of DiGeorge Syndrome.
