A cosmid library of human chromosome 16 has been subcloned, and (AC)n microsatellite positive clones have been identified and sequenced. Oligonucleotide primers flanking the repeat were designed and synthesized for (AC)n microsatellites with n greater than 16. These microsatellite loci were then mapped by PCR using a somatic cell hybrid panel of human chromosome 16, and their heterozygosities and allele frequencies determined. Fourteen (AC)n microsatellites were mapped to discrete physical intervals of human chromosome 16 defined by a mouse/human hybrid panel. Nine of these have expected heterozygosities ranging between 0.60 and 0.79, four have expected heterozygosities between 0.02 and 0.49, and one detected three loci where the alleles could not be resolved.

D004276 DNA, Satellite Highly repetitive DNA sequences found in HETEROCHROMATIN, mainly near centromeres. They are composed of simple sequences (very short) (see MINISATELLITE REPEATS) repeated in tandem many times to form large blocks of sequence. Additionally, following the accumulation of mutations, these blocks of repeats have been repeated in tandem themselves. The degree of repetition is on the order of 1000 to 10 million at each locus. Loci are few, usually one or two per chromosome. They were called satellites since in density gradients, they often sediment as distinct, satellite bands separate from the bulk of genomic DNA owing to a distinct BASE COMPOSITION.
