A locus for posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy ( PPCD3 ) maps to chromosome 10
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2004-11-01)
Posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy (PPCD) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by corneal endothelial abnormalities, which can lead to blindness due to loss of corneal transparency and sometimes glaucoma. ...
Increased recombination adjacent to the Huntington disease-linked D4S10 marker
(Elsevier, 1991-01)
Huntington disease (HD) is caused by a genetic defect distal to the anonymous DNA marker D4S10 in the terminal cytogenetic subband of the short arm of chromosome 4 (4p16.3). The effort to identify new markers linked to HD ...
Radiation hybrid map spanning the huntington disease gene region of chromosome 4Radiation hybrid map spanning the huntington disease gene region of chromosome 4
(Elsevier, 1992-08)
Radiation hybrid (RH) mapping was used to construct a map of 11 markers in the distal 4 Mb of the short arm of chromosome 4, the region containing the Huntington disease gene. Two different methods for deriving the order ...
Linkage analysis of von Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis to DNA markers on chromosome 17
(Elsevier, 1987-12)
Several recent studies indicate that the von Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis (NF1) gene is located near the centromere of chromosome 17 in some families. However, variable expressivity and a very high mutation rate suggest ...
Commingling and segregation analyses: Comparison of results from a simulation study of a quantitative trait
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1990)
Commingling analysis is commonly used to provide preliminary evidence for a single genetic locus with a major effect on the quantitative trait of interest. In this paper, the effectiveness of commingling analysis as a ...
A radiation hybrid map of the region on human chromosome 22 containing the neurofibromatosis type 2 locus
(Elsevier, 1992-11)
We describe a high-resolution radiation hybrid map of the region on human chromosome 22 containing the neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) gene. Eighty-five hamster--human somatic cell hybrids generated by X-irradiation and ...
Physical mapping of the nail patella syndrome interval at 9q34: ordering of STSs and ESTs
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1998-11)
The murine situs inversus viscerum (iv) gene responsible for visceral asymmetry is linked tightly to the Igh-C cluster on chromosome 12
(Elsevier, 1990-07)
The iv gene controls left-right determination during murine organogenesis. To map this gene, we analyzed backcross progeny produced by mating (C57BL/6J x MEV/Ty)F1-iv/+ heterozygotes to C57BL/6J-iv homozygotes. Hybridization ...
Tag SNP selection for Finnish individuals based on the CEPH Utah HapMap database
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2006-02)
The pattern and nature of linkage disequilibrium in the human genome is being studied and catalogued as part of the International HapMap Project [:2003 Nature 426:789–796]. A key goal of the HapMap Project is to enable ...
Epidemiology of endometrial neoplasia
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1995)
Though among U.S. women endometrial cancer is the most common invasive gynecological cancer, it has a relatively favorable prognosis. From 1986–1990, approximately 19% of U.S. Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results ...
