title: Linkage of transcobalamin II (TC2) to the P blood group system and assignment to chromosome 22.
abstract: The linkage relationships of transcobalamin II (TC2) against 64 other marker systems are studied in a Danish family material (families 604-1505). A strong indication of linkage between TC2 and the blood group system P was discovered (z = 7.91 at theta = 0.14 for males and theta = 0.20 for females combined). Accordingly, TC2 could be assigned to chromosome 22 (since blood group P has earlier been assigned to this chromosome).
