Abstract
Fluorescence in situ hybridization has been used in a cytogenetic anal ysis to map 15 cosmids on human chromosome 22. Thirteen cosmids were l ocalized on the long arm of chromosome 22 (22q) while two other probes displayed a hybridization signal on 22p and the short arm of the acro centric chromosomes of groups D and G. The regional assignment of thes e new chromosome markers will improve the mapping of chromosome 22 ; t hey can be used to detect numerical and structural aberrations of this chromosome involved in numerous pathologies.
