Confirmation of linkage disequilibrium between haplotype B (XV-2c, allele 1; KM-19, allele 2) and cystic fibrosis allele in the French population

Abstract: In 237 French families with cystic fibrosis (CF) restricted fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) were detected by two DNA probes, XV-2c and KM-19, which are tightly linked to the CF allele. As in other European populations linkage disequilibrium is found between the haplotype B (XV-2c, allele 1: KM-19, allele 2) and the CF allele. Linkage disequilibrium alters the probability that a person bearing a given haplotype is a carrier.

“…The predictive B haplotype was found on 85% of tested CF chromosomes in our sample. This figure is comparable to those reported from other studies on North European populations (Estivill et al 1987a;Krawczak et al 1988;Weber et al 1988;Krogh Johansen et al 1989;Vidaud et al 1989). Most PI-patients in our group were homozygous for the risk haplotype B; in contrast, the majority of PS-patients carried at least one other haplotype on their CF chromosome.…”

“…The high-risk haplotype B (XV-2c, allele 1; KM.19, allele 2) was observed on 85% of CF chromosomes; this agrees with published data for Caucasian families from Germany (Krawczak et al 1988;Trefz et al 1989;Weber et al 1988), Europe (Estivill et al 1987a, b;Krogh Johansen et al 1989;Vidaud et al 1989), and North America (Beaudet et al 1989;Cutting et al 1989). In addition, allele frequencies on N chromosomes for the RFLPs 3.11 (MspI), and met H (MspI, TaqI) and met D (TaqI) did not differ significantly from data in the literature.…”

“…By this time, all the authors could provide evidence for a strong haplotypic association between the CF mutation and both the D1 allele of XV2C and the E2 allele of KM19 (Estivill et al 1987bKrawczach et al 1988;Mornet et al 1988;Weber et al 1989;Mornet et al 1989;Vidaud et al 1989;Beaudet et al 1989;Cutting et al 1989). Such a strong linkage disequilibrium lead us, like many authors, to consider that most CF cases were the result of a single or predominant ancestral mutation initially associated with a B RFLP haplotype and subsequently reassociated by crossing-over with A, C or D haplotypes.…”
