An (AC)n repeat within the anonymous DNA sequence D21S171 was shown to be highly polymorphic in members of the 40 Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humaine (CEPH) families. Ten different alleles at this marker locus were detected by electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels of DNA amplified by the polyme

β¦ Synopsis
Some forms of familial Alzheimer disease (FAD) have shown linkage to DNA probes for the loci D21S1 and D21S16 on chromosome 21. To investigate the physical location of these DNA probes, we have constructed a physical map of this region of chromosome 21 by using quantitative Southern blot analysis of DNA sequences unique to chromosome 21 and a series of cell lines aneuploid for parts of chromosome 21. We now show that both D21S16 and D21S1/S11 are located in the same region of chromosome 21, in q11.2-q21.05. This new panel of aneuploid cell lines will allow the rapid mapping of new DNA probes in the vicinity of the FAD gene.

Mapping the long arm of Chromosome (Chr) 4 has assumed medical relevance with the establishment of linkage of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) to distal 4q markers. We have constructed a multipoint linkage map using DNA markers that map to the long arm of Chr 4. Segregation data were co
We used a cloned cDNA probe for human growth hormone and Southern blotting techniques to analyze DNA from a series of rodent x human somatic cell hybrids for the presence of growth hormone-related sequences. Our results provide evidence for the assignment of the genes for growth hormone and chorioni
We have characterized 19 DNA fragments originating from the human X chromosome. Most of them have been isolated from an X chromosome genomic library (Davies et al. 1981) using a systematic screening procedure. These DNA probes have been used to search for restriction fragment length polymorphisms (R
To isolate a putative tumor suppressor gene(+ we have constructed a physical map and a detailed deletion map of chromosome region 8p2 I .3-p22, where loss of heterozygosity (LOH) has been frequently seen in human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), colorectal cancers (CRC), and non-small cell lung canc
