Linkage studies on glyoxalase I (GLO), pepsinogen (PG), spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA1), and HLA

Abstract
Pedigree analyses of five families in which a form of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA1) is present have been used to obtain additional information on the location of SCA1 on chromosome 6. Recombination rates with HLA and glyoxalase I (GLO) suggest that the order is HLA-GLO-SCA1. There was no evidence for linkage of pepsinogen isozyme-5 (PG) either to HLA or GLO.
