Summary
Linkage analysis of four polymorphic anonymous DNA markers from the Xp22 region was performed using families from the Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain. The loci DXS43 (pD2) and DXS16 (pXUT23) were found to be tightly linked (\(\hat \theta \)= 0.02 at\(\hat Z\)= 14.96) and proximal to both DXS85 (782) and DXS143 (dic56). Multipoint linkage analysis suggests the order:
