title: Mapping of seven polymorphic loci on human chromosome 13 by in situ hybridization.
abstract: Human chromosome 13 loci homologous to seven recombinant DNA probes were mapped using in situ hybridization of 3H-radiolabeled probes to metaphase chromosomes. Each of these seven probes reveals at least one restriction fragment length polymorphism, and thus each probe is potentially valuable in a genetic linkage map of this autosome. The data presented in this paper map the seven loci to specific regions of chromosome 13. This mapping should allow a future comparison of genetic distance with physical distance on this chromosome, and may permit better utilization of these probes in the clinical diagnosis of human chromosomal rearrangements involving chromosome 13.
