Conclusion

Overall, the probe map fromDXWas70 toAmg encompasses 72 cM and includes 103 loci. Eight of these have been designated reference loci (see Table 2 and previous section) on account of their wide usage that would enable the cross reference of independent maps created in different laboratories. Reference loci are to be readily available and easily used probes for Southern hybridization. By and large, they will be STSs, regeneratable by PCR, and correspond to a known gene. In addition, on the mouse X Chr, there is a reference locus from each of the known conserved linkage groups found between the mouse and human X Chrs. All the loci, barDXWas31, represent conserved sequences.
