PRECISE CHROMOSOMAL LOCATIONS OF THE GENES FOR DENTATORUBRAL-PALLIDOLUYSIAN ATROPHY (DRPLA), VON-WILLEBRAND-FACTOR (F8VWF) AND PARATHYROID HORMONE-LIKE HORMONE (PTHLH) IN HUMAN-CHROMOSOME 12P BY DELETION MAPPING
A. Kuwano et al., PRECISE CHROMOSOMAL LOCATIONS OF THE GENES FOR DENTATORUBRAL-PALLIDOLUYSIAN ATROPHY (DRPLA), VON-WILLEBRAND-FACTOR (F8VWF) AND PARATHYROID HORMONE-LIKE HORMONE (PTHLH) IN HUMAN-CHROMOSOME 12P BY DELETION MAPPING, Human genetics, 97(1), 1996, pp. 95-98
The precise chromosomal localization of the gene for dentatorubral-pal
lidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) was detected by deletion mapping. Segregat
ion patterns of genotypes of polymerase chain reaction products of DRP
LA, von Willebrand factor (F8vWF), antigen CD4(p55) (CD4) and parathyr
oid hormone-like hormone (PTHLH) loci were studied in patients with de
l(12)(p13.3p13.3), del(12>(p12.3-p11.2), del(12)(p12.1-p11.2), del(12)
(p11.2p11.2) and their parents. The gene for DRPLA was assigned to p1
3.1-p12.3 of chromosome 12. In addition, genes for F8vWF and PTHLH wer
e mapped to p13.2 and p11.2 of chromosome 12, respectively.
