Abstract
We have constructed a high-resolution clone map of human chromosome 22 which integrates the available physical and genetic information, esta blishing a single consensus. The map consists of all classes of DNA la ndmarks ordered on 705 yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) at an avera ge landmark density of more than one per 70 kilobases. This map repres ents the practical limits of currently available YAC resources and pro vides the basis for determination of the entire gene content and genom ic DNA sequence of human chromosome 22.
