A Gene Map of the Human Genome

Abstract: The human genome is thought to harbor 50,000 to 100,000 genes, of which about half have been sampled to date in the form of expressed sequence tags. An international consortium was organized to develop and map gene-based sequence tagged site markers on a set of two radiation hybrid panels and a yeast artificial chromosome library. More than 16,000 human genes have been mapped relative to a framework map that contains about 1000 polymorphic genetic markers. The gene map unifies the existing genetic and physical… Show more

“…The expressed sequence tags (ESTs) T57690 and D29206 have been mapped to the genomic intervals between D7S486 and D7S2487 (125 ± 126 cM from 7pter) and D7S523 and D7S486 (123 ± 125 cM from 7pter) respectively, using the Stanford G3 and Genebridge 4 radiation hybrid mapping panels (Schuler et al, 1996). These adjacent genomic intervals comprise approximately 2 Mbp of¯anking DNA.…”

“…Both genes encode Gprotein coupled receptors which have wide biological activities (Hsieh et al, 1990;Herzog et al, 1996). HTR2 is mapped centromeric to Rb1 on 13q14.2, while U16 is located in the intron 17 or Rb1 (Hsieh et al, 1990;Herzog et al, 1996;Schuler et al, 1996). In the distal critical region, one TSG candidate may be the DBM gene which has been found to be homozygously deleted in B cell malignancy (Liu et al, 1995).…”

“…The chromosomal location of the gene for MKP5 was determined by the identi®cation of a previously mapped sequence tagged site (STS) within the MKP5 cDNA (STS WI-16074) (Schuler et al, 1996), and localizes to human chromosome 1q32, between the framework markers WI-4922 and WI-6955 (Figure 3). These mapping data can be accessed using the World Wide Web server of the Whitehead Institute (http:// www.genome.wi.mit.edu/cgi-bin/contig/phys_map).…”
