โฆ Synopsis
We were able to refine the chromosomal position of two existing marker loci, using an extended chromosome 21 somatic cell hybrid panel. The locus D21S26 mapped in the region 21q11.2-q21.1, and the locus D21S24 in 21q22.1-q22.2. Physical and genetic analysis indicated that D21S26 is tightly linked to D21S13 and D21S16, two markers previously linked to familial Alzheimer's disease.
