Alignment of the consensus sequences obtained from those determined in this study from the alpha satellite of D1Z7, D5Z2 (for the two homologues of this study) and D19Z3. Using FISH with oligonucleotides at positions where the consensus sequences were different, it was indeed possible to label specifically the chromosome with the specific consensus nucleotide (Toutirais, G, Witkowska, M, Piazza, A, Richard, F, Roizès, G and Escudé, C, submitted).
