โœฆ Synopsis

In order to localize the gene for the X-linked form of Alport syndrome (ATS) more precisely, we performed restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis with nine different X-chromosomal DNA markers in 107 members of twelve Danish families segregating for classic ATS or progressive hereditary nephritis without deafness. Two-point linkage analysis confirmed close linkage to the markers DXS17(S21) (zeta max = 4.44 at theta = 0.04), DXS94(pXG-12) (zeta max = 8.07 at theta = 0.04), and DXS101(cX52.5) (zeta max = 6.04 at theta = 0.00), and revealed close linkage to two other markers: DXS88(pG3-1) (zeta max = 6.36 at theta = 0.00) and DXS11(p22-33) (zeta max = 3.45 at theta = 0.00). Multipoint linkage analysis has mapped the gene to the region between the markers DXS17 and DXS94, closely linked to DXS101. By taking into account the consensus map and results from other studies, the most probable order of the loci is: DXYS1(pDP34)-DXS3 (p19-2)-DXS17-(ATS,DXS101)-DXS94-DXS11 -DXS42(p43-15)-DXS51(52A). DXS88 was found to be located between DXS17 and DXS42, but the order in relation to the ATS locus and the other markers used in this study could not be determined.

Four kindreds segregating for Alport's syndrome (ASLN) compatible with a X-linked inheritance were studied for linkage with polymorphic markers of the human X chromosome. No recombinant was observed between the ASLN locus and the DXS101 and DXS94 loci, the maximum lod scores were z = 3.93 and 3.50 r

An extensive linkage analysis was performed by studying ten Xp22 loci in ten families segregating for X-linked ocular albinism of the Nettleship-Falls type (XOA). Linkage was confirmed between the XOA locus (OA1) and both DXS16 (theta max = 0.10, zeta max = 4.09) and DXS237 (theta max = 0.12, zeta m

The clinical findings of a kindred with an X-linked disorder are characterized by autoimmune polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy with villous atrophy, chronic dermatitis, and variable immunodeficiency. Linkage analysis was performed on 20 members of the affected kindred to determine the location of the
