Title: Linkage relationships of the protein kinase C gamma gene which exclude it as a candidate for myotonic dystrophy. Author: Johnson KJ, Jones PJ, Spurr N, Nimmo E, Davies J, Creed H, Weiss M, Williamson R. Journal: Cytogenet Cell Genet; 1988; 48(1):13-5. PubMed ID: 2460293. Abstract: Using a cDNA probe for the gamma gene of protein kinase C (PKCG), an informative RFLP with a PIC value of 0.62 has been identified with the enzyme MspI. The polymorphic bands have been assigned to chromosome 19. Analysis of the segregation of alleles for this probe in myotonic dystrophy families show several recombinants between PKCG and myotonic dystrophy (DM) and exclude this gene as a candidate for DM. Linkage relationships between PKCG and other loci on chromosome 19 are presented which exclude PKCG from the proximal region of chromosome 19 and which are consistent with the localization being at 19q13.2----qter.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
