Abstract
DNA sequence polymorphisms were used to determine the linear order and recombinational distances separating the Harvey ras 1 oncogene (c-Ha-ras-1), .beta.-globin, insulin and parathyroid hormone genes on the short arm of human chromosome 11. c-Ha-ras-1 may be closely linked to both the .beta.-globin locus (.cxa..THETA. = 0.08 [8 centimorgans], lod score = 5.11) and insulin locus (.cxa..THETA. = 0.04 [4 centimorgans], lod score = 3.31). The probable order of these loci on chromosome 11p is centromere-parathyroid hormone.sbd..beta. globin-c-Ha-ras-I.sbd.insulin.
