Parental origin of the translocation chromosome. The normal chromosome 15 in the patient is inherited from his mother (C). The der(15) chromosome is inherited from the father (B). One of the chromosomes 15 of the father of the patient showed medium intensity centromere staining with a pale satellite. The other chromosome 15 in the father showed light centromere staining with a pale satellite. One of the mother’s chromosome 15 showed a pale centromere and a bright satellite. The other chromosome 15 in the mother showed medium to pale centromere staining and a negative satellite. The patient’s normal chromosome 15 showed a pale centromere and bright satellite, indicating it is maternal in origin. The der(15) showed a light centromere and pale satellite, indicating it is paternal in origin.
