Abstract

One hundred and fifty-one YACs were selected from three libraries with a series of STS and other DNA probes of the human X chromosome p11.2 - p21. 3 region. The YAC contigs, spanning about 35cM in all and generally cover the whole region,were constructed based on the physical analysis of the positive clones. A total of seventy-seven DNA markers of this region were located and ordered on this map with an average 454 kb spacing,in which fifty-three were polymorphic markers with an average 0.6cM genetic spacing. These results facilitate the search for novel genes and the sequence analysis of this region.
