An STS-based radiation hybrid map of the human genome.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have constructed a physical map of the human genome by using a panel of 83 whole genome radiation hybrids (the Stanford G3 panel) in conjunction with 10,478 sequence-tagged sites (STSs) derived from random genomic DNA sequences, previously mapped genetic markers, and expressed sequences. Of these STSs, 5049 are framework markers that fall into 1766 high-confidence bins. An additional 945 STSs are indistinguishable in their map location from one or more of the framework markers. These 5994 mapped STSs have an average spacing of 500 kb. An additional 4484 STSs are positioned with respect to the framework markers. Comparison of the orders of markers on this map with orders derived from independent meiotic and YAC STS-content maps indicates that the error rate in defining high-confidence bins is < 5%. Analysis of 322 random cDNAs indicates that the map covers the vast majority of the human genome. This STS-based radiation hybrid map of the human genome brings us one step closer to the goal of a physical map containing 30,000 unique ordered landmarks with an average marker spacing of 100 kb.

An STS-based map of the human genome.
A physical map has been constructed of the human genome containing 15,086 sequence-tagged sites (STSs), with an average spacing of 199 kilobases. The project involved assembly of a radiation hybrid map of the human genome containing 6193 loci and incorporated a genetic linkage map of the human genome containing 5264 loci. This information was combined with the results of STS-content screening o...
متن کاملA contiguous high-resolution radiation hybrid map of 44 loci from the distal portion of the long arm of human chromosome 5.
A contiguous high-resolution map of 44 loci from a 35-Mb portion of the distal region of the long arm of human chromosome 5, q21-q35, was produced using radiation hybrid (RH) mapping in conjunction with a natural deletion mapping panel. The map includes 30 genes, four sequence-tagged site (STS) loci, and 10 DNA markers. Newly mapped markers fill two gap regions that were present in previous map...
متن کاملA radiation hybrid map of human chromosome 5 with integration of cytogenetic, genetic, and transcript maps.
One of the major goals of the human genome project is to establish a physical map of each human chromosome with a density of sequence-tagged site (STS) markers exceeding one every 100 kb. We report here the generation of a human chromosome 5-specific radiation hybrid (RH) map that includes 556 markers. Of these markers, 132 loci are ordered with a maximum likelihood ratio of >1000:1 compared wi...
متن کاملA physical map of human chromosome 7: an integrated YAC contig map with average STS spacing of 79 kb.
The construction of highly integrated and annotated physical maps of human chromosomes represents a critical goal of the ongoing Human Genome Project. Our laboratory has focused on developing a physical map of human chromosome 7, a approximately 170-Mb segment of DNA that corresponds to an estimated 5% of the human genome. Using a yeast artificial chromosome (YAC)-based sequence-tagged site (ST...
متن کاملMolecular identification of infertile bulls by using newly developed DDX3Y based on human STS markers
To determine the role of DDX3Y gene in spermatogenesis and infertility in bulls, blood samples were collected from five infertile bulls (azoospermic; no sperm in the semen) at the Animal Breeding Center in Karaj, Iran. The recommended human primers by EAA/EQMN were investigated using the BLASTn database for STS marker detection. Alignment of STS marker genes with bovine genome was performed. Pr...
