Published estimates of the length of the human X chromosome are unreliable because they are based on scanty linkage data and complex assumptions about the frequency and distribution of chiasmata in female meiosis. In recent months we have established linkage between restriction fragment length polym

We have determined the subchromosomal location of the human insulin gene by analyzing DNA isolated from sorted human metaphase chromosomes. Metaphase chromosome suspensions were sorted into fractions according to relative Hoechst fluorescence intensity by the fluorescence activated chromosome sorter
We used I0 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) probes spanning the length of the short arm of chromosome 3 (3p) t o map deletion sites in human lung cancer. Two approaches were used. I) When a patient's tumor and normal tissue were available, loci with allelic heterozygosity in the norma
One hundred normal Caucasians were studied by the RFA technique to estimate the frequencies of size variation of the short arm of acrocentric chromosomes. Each size variation was classified into one of five levels. The most frequent size level(code) was 3; therefore, this was regarded as the 'averag
