title: Mapping of human chromosome 22 with a panel of somatic cell hybrids.
abstract: The adenylosuccinate lyase (ADSL) which is essential for generating adenylate, maps to the long arm of chromosome 22. By using a Chinese hamster ovary cell line deficient in ADSL activity, we have constructed a set of 17 somatic cell hybrids containing defined regions of human chromosome 22. This panel was extended with six additional hybrids, obtained in other laboratories using various methods of selection. Southern analysis of the hybrids with 38 chromosome 22 probes defined 14 different subregions which could be linearly organized on the long arm of chromosome 22. The order of the probes thus deduced is fully compatible with their previous localization and with the genetic map. The ADSL gene was further sublocalized between the MB and D22S22. This panel, which enables the rapid assignment of chromosome 22 single copy probes to small subregions, will be an important tool in the construction of a detailed physical map of this part of the genome.
