The efficiency of mapping and diagnosis of X-linked disorders by linkage depends upon the existence of a high-density genetic map of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based markers. DXS1120, DXS1122, DXS1123, DXS1124, DXS1125, DXS1126, and DXS1153 were randomly isolated from a flow-sorted lambda bacteriophage library of the human X chromosome. The CCN (N = A or G) repeat within the androgen receptor was also found to be polymorphic and primers were designed for genotyping the CCN polymorphism in addition to the AGC polymorphism. The above markers, together with microsatellite polymorphisms at DXS237 (GMGX9), 5'DYS-II and 3'DYS MS (within the dystrophin locus), DXS538 (XL27B), PGK1P1, DXS300 (VK29AC), DXS294 (VK17AC), and DXS102 (cX38.1AC), were genotyped in the 40 CEPH reference families. One marker, DXS1153, was found to include cryptic alleles that amplify only in homozygotes and hemizygotes but not heterozygotes. A PCR-based linkage map was constructed using all of the above markers plus PCR-based markers from the CEPH database and those PCR-based markers previously typed in our laboratory: ALAS2, DXS292 (VK14AC), DXS297 (VK23AC), FRAXAC1, and FRAXAC2. The genetic map of the X chromosome incorporates 62 PCR-based marker loci, integrates the Weissenbach markers, and extends from XG near Xpter to DXS52 near Xqter, a distance of 236 cM.

D008969 Molecular Sequence Data Descriptions of specific amino acid, carbohydrate, or nucleotide sequences which have appeared in the published literature and/or are deposited in and maintained by databanks such as GENBANK, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF), or other sequence repositories.

D009154 Mutation Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations. Mutations
D012091 Repetitive Sequences, Nucleic Acid Sequences of DNA or RNA that occur in multiple copies. There are several types: INTERSPERSED REPETITIVE SEQUENCES are copies of transposable elements (DNA TRANSPOSABLE ELEMENTS or RETROELEMENTS) dispersed throughout the genome. TERMINAL REPEAT SEQUENCES flank both ends of another sequence, for example, the long terminal repeats (LTRs) on RETROVIRUSES. Variations may be direct repeats, those occurring in the same direction, or inverted repeats, those opposite to each other in direction. TANDEM REPEAT SEQUENCES are copies which lie adjacent to each other, direct or inverted (INVERTED REPEAT SEQUENCES).

D002877 Chromosomes, Human Very long DNA molecules and associated proteins, HISTONES, and non-histone chromosomal proteins (CHROMOSOMAL PROTEINS, NON-HISTONE). Normally 46 chromosomes, including two sex chromosomes are found in the nucleus of human cells. They carry the hereditary information of the individual. Chromosome, Human,Human Chromosome,Human Chromosomes
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.
