Pretty interesting.

Incidentally, I discovered that I actually have a balanced whole arm translocation of chromosomes 5 and 16. That is I have one normal 5, one normal 16, and two abnormal chromosomes one with a 5p/16q and one with a 5q/16p. I only found it out when I rotated through a cytogenetics lab and we dropped our own chromosomes for grins. It's not a Robertsonian translocation (doesn't involved acrocentric chromosomes) but it's right through the centromeres of 5 and 16. Pretty weird, but as far as I can tell, totally asymptomatic. I'm a physician (and hobby-python guy) and have 4 completely normal kids.
