A, Copy number ratios of ∼8,000 clones covering the whole genome, with a resolution of ∼0.5 Mb, are shown for patient X1604. The loci of the amylase and beta-defensin gene clusters are indicated. The red lines in panels A and B show the smoothed copy number ratio, as calculated by the GLAD algorithm. B, Copy number ratios of all clones on chromosome 8 of patient X1604. The beta-defensin locus on 8p23.1 is indicated. C, Detail of copy number ratios on 8p23.1 for patient X1604. The alpha-defensin and the two beta-defensin loci are shown by arrows, indicating the genomic orientation of the loci; “sequence gap” indicates a region where no human reference sequence is available. The genomic position, length, and name of genomic fragments covering the region of interest are displayed at the top. The red line indicates the average genomic position of the region that shows a CNP in our 20 hybridizations. D, Copy number ratios in the 8p23.1 region of 10 patients with colonic CD. E, Copy number ratios in the 8p23.1 region of 10 healthy control individuals.
