Abstract
Two probes from the random human cosmid c1-37 detect restriction fragment length polymorphisms in humans. The loci revealed by these probes are in linkage equilibrium and constitute a compound polymorphic locus with a polymorphism information content of 0.54. A somatic cell hybrid panel has been used to map the probes to chromosome 20; in situ hybridization studies confirm this localization and indicate that the locus is on 20q13. This is the first polymorphic locus to be assigned to the long arm of chromosome 20.This publication has 23 references indexed in Scilit:
