title: Evidence for the close linkage between lymphocyte cytosol polypeptide with molecular weight of 64,000 (LCP1) and esterase D.
abstract: The genetic linkage of the loci for lymphocyte cytosol polypeptide with molecular weight of 64,000 (LCP1) and esterase (ESD) were examined by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis using blood from four informative families. No recombinants were observed in the four families totaling 17 children, giving a summed lod score of 4.221 at recombination fraction 0. This result indicates that the gene for LCP1 is closely linked to the ESD locus, which is assigned to the chromosomal region 13q14.11. This finding also suggests that the LCP1 locus is linked to the retinoblastoma gene, which is assigned to the same chromosomal region and closely linked to the ESD locus.
