Haplotype and multipoint linkage analysis in Finnish choroideremia families   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
Summary Multipoint linkage analysis of choroideremia (TCD) and seven X chromosomal restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) was carried out in 18 Finnish TCD families. The data place TCD distal to PGK and DXS72, very close to DXYS1 and DXYS5 (Zmax = 24 at = 0) and proximal to DXYS4 and DXYS12. This agrees with the data obtained from other linkage studies and from physical mapping. All the TCD males and carrier females studied have the same DXYS1 allele in coupling with TCD. In Northeastern Finland, 66/69 chromosomes carrying TCD had the same haplotype at loci DXS72, DXYS1, DXYS4, and DXYS12. The same haplotype is seen in only 15/99 chromosomes not carrying TCD. Moreover, in 71/104 non-TCD chromosomes, the haplotype at six marker loci is different from those seen in any of the 76 TCD chromosomes. This supports the previously described hypothesis that the large Northern Finnish choroideremia pedigrees, comprising a total of over 80 living patients representing more than a fifth of all TCD patients described worldwide, carry the same mutation. These linkage and haplotype data provide improved opportunities for prenatal diagnosis based on RFLP studies.  相似文献

Summary Three families with androgen resistance syndromes — two with testicular feminization and one with Reifenstein syndrome — have been studied for linkage analysis. Using three cloned DNA sequences from the centromere region and the proximal long arm of the X chromosome (p8, pDP34, and S9, which define respectively the chromosomal segments DXS1, DXYS1, and DXS17), we found no recombination between the DXS1 locus and the mutant genes in the three families. Assuming that these disorders are the result of allelic mutations at the same locus for the androgen receptor, we can conclude that there is a close linkage between DXS1 and the androgen receptor locus, with a maximum lod score =3.5 at a recombination fraction =0.0 using the LIPED program (Ott 1974).  相似文献

Summary In order to localize the gene for the X-linked form of Alport syndrome (ATS) more precisely, we performed restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis with nine different X-chromosomal DNA markers in 107 members of twelve Danish families segregating for classic ATS or progressive hereditary nephritis without deafness. Two-point linkage analysis confirmed close linkage to the markers DXS17(S21) (Z max = 4.44 at = 0.04), DXS94(pXG-12) (Z max=8.07 at =0.04), and DXS101(cX52.5) (Z max=6.04 at =0.00), and revealed close linkage to two other markers: DXS88(pG3-1) (Z max =6.36 at =0.00) and DXS11(p22–33) (z max=3.45 at =0.00). Multipoint linkage analysis has mapped the gene to the region between the markers DXS17 and DXS94, closely linked to DXS101. By taking into account the consensus map and results from other studies, the most probable order of the loci is: DXYS1(pDP34)-DXS3(p19-2)-DXS17-(ATS, DXS101)-DXS94-DXS11-DXS42(p43-15)-DXS51(52A). DXS88 was found to be located between DXS17 and DXS42, but the order in relation to the ATS locus and the other markers used in this study could not be determined.  相似文献

A locus (CPX) responsible for X-linked cleft palate and ankyloglossia was previously mapped to the proximal long arm of the X chromosome through DNA marker linkage studies in two large kindreds: an Icelandic family and a British Columbia (B.C.) Native family. In this study, additional linkage analyses have been performed in the B.C. family and in a newly identified Manitoba Mennonite family with X-linked cleft palate and ankyloglossia. The Manitoba CPX locus maps to the same region as Icelandic and B.C. CPX. Two-point disease-tomarker linkage analyses in the Manitoba family indicate a maximum lod score (Zmax) between CPX and DXS349 (Zmax=3.33 at ). In multipoint linkage analysis, combined data from the B.C. and Manitoba families suggest that the most likely location for CPX is at DXS447 in Xq21.1 (multipoint Z=13.5). The support interval for CPX at DXS447 extends approximately from PGK1 to DXYS1 and includes a newly isolated polymorphic locus DXS1109.  相似文献

Multipoint linkage analysis in Menkes disease.   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1       下载免费PDF全文
Linkage analyses were performed in 11 families with X-linked Menkes disease. In each family more than one affected patient had been diagnosed. Forty informative meioses were tested using 11 polymorphic DNA markers. From two-point linkage analyses high lod scores are seen for DXS146 (pTAK-8; maximal lod score 3.16 at recombination fraction [theta] = .0), for DXS1 (p-8; maximal lod score 3.44 at theta = .0), for PGK1 (maximal lod score 2.48 at theta = .0), and for DXS3 (p19-2; maximal lod score 2.90 at theta = .0). This indicates linkage to the pericentromeric region. Multilocus linkage analyses of the same data revealed a peak for the location score between DXS146(pTAK-8) and DXYS1X(pDP34). The most likely location is between DXS159 (cpX289) and DXYS1X(pDP34). Odds for this location relative to the second-best-supported region, between DXS146(pTAK-8) and DXS159 (cpX289), are better than 74:1. Visualization of individual recombinant X chromosomes in two of the Menkes families showed the Menkes locus to be situated between DXS159(cpX289) and DXS94(pXG-12). Combination of the present results with the reported absence of Menkes symptoms in male patients with deletions in Xq21 leads to the conclusion that the Menkes locus is proximal to DXSY1X(pDP34) and located in the region Xq12 to Xq13.3.  相似文献

DNA linkage analysis of X-linked retinoschisis   总被引:10,自引:2,他引:8  
Summary Four families with juvenile retionoschisis (RS) have been studied by linkage analysis utilizing eleven polymorphic X-chromosomal markers. The results suggest a close linkage between DXS43, DXS41, and DXS208 and the RS locus at Xp22. The RS locus is distal to the OTC locus, DXS84, and the DMD locus but proximal to DXS85. No recombination events were observed between the RS locus and DXS43 and DXS41. The maximum likelihood estimate of the recombination fraction () was thus zero and the peak lod scores () were 4.98 (DXS43) and 4.09 (DXS41). The linkage data suggest that the gene order on Xp is DXS85-(DXS43, RS, DXS41)-DMD-DXS84-OTC.  相似文献

Summary Three families with anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (AED) have been studied by linkage analysis with seven polymorphic DNA markers from the Xp11-q21 region. Previously reported linkage to DXYS1 (Xq13-q21) has been confirmed (z()=4.08 at =0.05) and we have also established linkage to another polymorphic locus, DXS159, located in Xq11-q12 (z()=4.28 at =0.05). Physical mapping places DSX159 proximal to the Xq12 breakpoint of an X autosome translocation found in a female with clinical signs of ectodermal dysplasia. Of all markers that have been used in linkage analysis of AED, DXS159 would appear the closest on the proximal side of the disease locus.  相似文献

The locus responsible for X-linked, nonsyndromic cleft palate and/or ankyloglossia (CPX) has previously been mapped to the proximal long arm of the human X chromosome between Xq21.31 and q21.33 in an Icelandic kindred. We have extended these studies by analyzing an additional 14 informative markers in the family as well as including several newly investigated family members. Recombination analysis indicates that the CPX locus is more proximal than previously thought, within the interval Xq21.1-q21.31. Two recombinants place DXYS1X as the distal flanking marker, while one recombinant defines DXS326 as the proximal flanking marker, an interval of less than 5 cM. Each of the flanking markers recombines with the CPX locus, giving 2-point lod scores of Zmax = 4.16 at θ = 0.08 (DXS326) and Zmax = 5.80 at θ = 0.06 (DXYS1X).  相似文献

Summary We have studied the genetic linkage of two markers, the apolipoprotein C1 (APOC1) gene and a cytochrome P450 (CYP2A) gene, in relation to the gene for myotonic dystrophy (DM). A peak lod score of 9.29 at 2 cM was observed for APOC1-DM, with a lod score of 8.55 at 4cM for CYP2A-DM. These two markers also show close linkage to each other ( max = 0.05, Z max = 9.09). From examination of the genotypes of the recombinant individuals, CYP2A appears to map proximal to DM because in one recombinant individual CYP2A, APOC2 and CKMM had all recombined with DM. Evidence from another CYP2A-DM recombinant individual places CYP2A proximal to APOC2 and CKMM. Localisation of CYP2A on a panel of somatic cell hybrids also suggests that it is proximal to DM and APOC2/C1/E gene cluster.  相似文献

We have ordered nine polymorphic DNA markers within detailed map of the proximal part of the human X chromosome long arm, extending from band q11 to q22, by use of both physical mapping with a panel of rodent-human somatic hybrids and multipoint linkage analysis. Analysis of 44 families (including 17 families from the Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain) provided highly significant linkage data for both order and estimation of map distances between loci. We have obtained the following order: DXS1-DXS159-DXYS1-DXYS12-DXS3-(DXS94 , DXS178)-DXYS17. The most probable location of DXYS2 is between DXS159 and DXS3, close to DXYS1 and DXYS12. The high density of markers (nine loci within 30 recombination units) and the improvement in the estimation of recombination frequencies should be very useful for multipoint mapping of disease loci in this region and for diagnostic applications.  相似文献

Summary Anderson Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by α-galactosidase A deficiency. Hemizygous males and some heterozygous females develop renal failure and cardiovacular complications in early adult life. We have investigated six large UK families to assess the possible linkage of five polymorphic DNA probes to the Anderson Fabry locus, previously localised to Xq21-24. No recombination was found between Anderson Fabry disease and DXS87, DXS88 and DXS17, which gave lodmax=6.4,6.4 and 5.8 respectively at θ=0.00, (upper confidence limit 0.10). DXS3 gave lodmax 2.9 at θ=0.10 (upper confidence limit 0.25). DXYS1 was excluded from linkage. The best fit map (DXYS1/DXS3) θ=0.192 (DXS17/DXS87/DXS88/Anderson Fabry locus) provided no information about the order of loci in parentheses due to the absence of recombinants. The close linkage of DXS17, DXS87 and DXS88, together with α-galactosidade A estimation, can be used for antenatal diagnosis and carrier detection until the application of a gene specific probe has been evaluated.  相似文献

Summary Following the observation of a patient suffering from tuberous sclerosis (TSC) with a de novo reciprocal translocation t(3;12)(p26.3;q23.3), we have undertaken a linkage study in 15 TSC families using polymorphic DNA markers neighbouring the chromosome breakpoints. Significant lod scores have been obtained for markers D12S7 (z max=2.34, =0.14) and PAH (phenylalanine hydroxylase) (z max=4.34, =0.0). In multipoint linkage analysis, the peak lod score was 4.56 at the PAH gene locus. These data suggest the existence of a third gene locus for TSC (TSC3) on chromosome 12q22-24.1. The regions that have been found to be linked to TSC in different families map to the positions of three enzymes, phenylalanine hydroxylase (12q22-24), tyrosinase (11q14-22), and dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (9q34), all of which are involved in the conversion of phenylalanine to catecholamine neurotransmitters or melanin. Disorders of these biochemical pathways might be involved in the pathogenesis of TSC.  相似文献

Choroideremia (McK30310), an X-linked hereditary retinal dystrophy, causes night-blindness, progressive peripheral visual field loss, and, ultimately, central blindness in affected males. The location of choroideremia on the X chromosome is unknown. We have used restriction fragment length polymorphisms from the X chromosome to determine the regional localization of choroideremia by linkage analysis in families with this disease. One such polymorphic locus, DXYS1, located on the long arm (Xq) within bands q13-q21, shows no recombination with choroideremia at lod = 5.78. Therefore, with 90% probability, choroideremia maps within 9 centiMorgans (cM) of DXYS1. Another polymorphic locus, DXS11, located within Xq24-q26, also shows no recombination with choroideremia, although at a smaller lod score of 1.54 (90% probability limit theta less than 30 cM). This linkage with DXS11, a marker that is distal to DXYS1, suggests that the locus for choroideremia is also distal to DXYS1 and lies between these two markers in the region Xq13-q24. These results provide regional mapping for the disease that may be useful for prenatal diagnosis and, perhaps ultimately, for isolating the gene locus for choroideremia.  相似文献

Summary Linkage analysis and haplotype characterization for the allelic system detected at the 3 creatine kinase muscle type (CKMM) locus were carried out in 59 myotonic dystrophy (DM) families from Italy and Spain. A maximum lod score (z max) of 21.26 at a recombination frequency () of 0.00 was found. No statistically significant linkage disequilibrium was observed between DM and the RFLPs examined. However, a substantial linkage disequilibrium was found between CKMM-TaqI and CKMM-NcoI sites in these two populations.  相似文献

The AMELX gene located at Xp22.1-p22.3 encodes for the enamel protein amelogenin and has been implicated as the gene responsible for the inherited dental abnormality X-linked amelogenesis imperfecta (XAI). Three families with XAI have been investigated using polymorphic DNA markers flanking the position of AMELX. Using two-point linkage analysis, linkage was established between XAI and several of these markers in two families, with a combined lod score of 6.05 for DXS16 at theta = 0.04. This supports the involvement of AMELX, located close to DXS16, in the XAI disease process (AIH1) in those families. Using multipoint linkage analysis, the combined maximum lod score for these two families was 7.30 for a location of AIH1 at 2 cM distal to DXS16. The support interval around this location extended about 8 cM proximal to DXS92, and the AIH1 location could not be precisely defined by multipoint mapping. Study of recombination events indicated that AIH1 lies in the interval between DXS143 and DXS85. There was significant evidence against linkage to this region in the third family, indicating locus heterogeneity in XAI. Further analysis with markers on the long arm of the X chromosome showed evidence of linkage to DXS144E and F9 with no recombination with either of these markers. Two-point analysis gave a peak lod score at DXS144E with a maximum lod score of 2.83 at theta = 0, with a peak lod score in multipoint linkage analysis of 2.84 at theta = 0. The support interval extended 9 cM proximal to DXS144E and 14 cM distal to F9.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Atopic dermatitis is a common skin disease frequently associated with allergic disorders such as allergic rhinitis and asthma. Controversial linkage findings between atopy and markers at chromosome 11q13 led us to search chromosome 11 for genes conferring susceptibility to atopic dermatitis and atopy. Twelve families were investigated using highly polymorphic markers and a powerful model-free linkage test. Two markers gave evidence for linkage, D11S903 (P = 0.02) and FCER1B (P = 0.005). A two-point lod-score analysis between these two markers revealed significant evidence for linkage (z max = 4.02 at (θ = 0.0). In regard to model-dependent lod-score analyses between atopic disorders and FCER1B, two-point analysis gave a lod score of z = 0.78 whereas two-locus analysis using a recessive-dominant mode of inheritance displayed a significant lod score of z = 3.55. Only 2 of 12 families showed evidence for linkage using the latter oligogenic model. In conclusion, the results of our study map the FCER1B gene in close proximity to D11S903, support the finding of Cookson et al. implicating the IgE high-affinity receptor gene (FCER1B) at 11q13, and furthermore suggest an oligogenic mode of inheritance as well as heterogeneity in the genetic susceptibility to atopy and atopic dermatitis.

The gene responsible for X-linked cleft palate and ankyloglossia (CPX) has previously been localized to the proximal region of the q arm of the X chromosome in both Icelandic and North American Indian kindreds. In this study, further linkage analysis has been performed on the Icelandic family and has resulted in a significant reduction in the size of the interval containing the mutated gene. A new polymorphism at DXS95, together with DXS1002 and DXS349, defines the proximal boundary of the CPX interval, whereas DXYS1X defines the distal boundary. Multipoint analysis supports this localisation with a peak lod score of 12.7, more than 2 lod score units higher than the next most likely position. In order to assess the physical size of the CPX interval prior to initiating yeast artificial chromosome cloning, metaphase fluorescence in situ hybridisation analysis was performed with the closest flanking markers. The size of the interval between DXS95 and DXYS1X was estimated to be approximately 2–3 Mb.  相似文献

Linkage localization of X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.   总被引:7,自引:3,他引:4  
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), also known as hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, is a heterogeneous group of slowly progressive, degenerative disorders of peripheral nerve. X-linked CMT (CMTX) (McKusick 302800), a subdivision of type I, or demyelinating, CMT is an X-linked dominant condition with variable penetrance. Previous linkage analysis using RFLPs demonstrated linkage to markers on the proximal long and short arms of the X chromosome, with the more likely localization on the proximal long arm of the X chromosome. Available variable simple-sequence repeats (VSSRs) broaden the possibilities for linkage analysis. This paper presents new linkage data and recombination analysis derived from work with four VSSR markers--AR, PGKP1, DXS453, and DXYS1X--in addition to analysis using RFLP markers described elsewhere. These studies localize the CMTX gene to the proximal Xq segment between PGKP1 (Xq11.2-12) and DXS72 (Xq21.1), with a combined maximum multipoint lod score of 15.3 at DXS453 (theta = 0).  相似文献

Identification of trophoblast in chorionic villi biopsy samples   总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2  
Summary Genetic linkage studies were carried out in families with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (C-S-T syndrome). A DNA probe DXYS1 (pDP34), which maps both to the proximal part of the long arm of the X chromosome, Xq13-Xq21, and proximally on Yp, was used to detect a TaqI restriction fragment length polymorphism of the X-chromosomal locus in the DNA samples from 11 families. This locus was found to be closely linked to the X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia locus, with a lod score of 2.66 at recombination fraction () of 0.06 (90% confidence limits 0.01–0.26). Only one crossover was observed in nineteen meioses. This indicates that the probe DXYS1 is closely linked to the X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia locus and is likely to facilitate carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis tests.  相似文献

Summary This paper presents three markers, 16D/E, pHMAI (DXS208), and CRI-L1391 (DXS274), that show close linkage for X-linked hypophosphataemic rickets (HYP). DXS274 is closely linked to HYP ( max= 0.00, Zmax = 4.20), and DXS41 (99.6), ( max= 0.00, Zmax = 5.20). Marker 16D/E maps distal to the disease locus ( max= 0.05, Zmax = 3.11). The pHMAI probe recognises the same restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) as 99.6. Multipoint analysis suggests that the most probable order of loci is Xpter-(DXS43, 16D/E)-HYP-DXS274-(DXS208, DXS41)-Xcen. The location of DXS274 distal to HYP cannot be excluded, as no recombinants were observed between DXS274 and HYP, or between DXS274 and DXS41/DXS208. One of the families contains a large number of recombinants, four of which are double recombinants. This most probably means that the disease in this family maps elsewhere on the X chromosome or on an autosome, indicating locus heterogeneity.  相似文献
