  • Title: Genetic mapping of nine DNA markers in the q11----q22 region of the human X chromosome.

    Journal: Genomics; 1987 Sep; 1(1):60-6. PubMed ID: 2889662.
    Abstract:
    We have ordered nine polymorphic DNA markers within detailed map of the proximal part of the human X chromosome long arm, extending from band q11 to q22, by use of both physical mapping with a panel of rodent-human somatic hybrids and multipoint linkage analysis. Analysis of 44 families (including 17 families from the Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain) provided highly significant linkage data for both order and estimation of map distances between loci. We have obtained the following order: DXS1-DXS159-DXYS1-DXYS12-DXS3-(DXS94 , DXS178)-DXYS17. The most probable location of DXYS2 is between DXS159 and DXS3, close to DXYS1 and DXYS12. The high density of markers (nine loci within 30 recombination units) and the improvement in the estimation of recombination frequencies should be very useful for multipoint mapping of disease loci in this region and for diagnostic applications.
