Contribution to high-resolution mapping in pigs with 101 type I markers and progress in comparative map between humans and pigs.
In the frame of the European program GenetPig, we localized on the Pig map 105 coding sequences (type I markers) from different origins, using INRA-University of Minnesota porcine Radiation Hybrid Panel (IMpRH, 101 markers) and somatic cell hybrid panel (SCHP, 93 markers, of which only four were not also mapped using IMpRH). Thus, we contributed to the improvement of the porcine high-resolution map, and we complemented the integration between the RH and cytogenetic maps. IMpRH tools allowed us to map 101 new markers relatively to reference markers of the first generation radiation hybrid map. Ninety out of 101 markers are linked to an already mapped marker with a LOD score greater than 4.8. Seventy-eight markers were informative for comparative mapping. Comparison of marker positions on the RH map with those obtained on the cytogenetic map or those expected by Human-Pig comparative map data suggested to us to be cautious with markers linked with a LOD lower than 6. These results allowed us to specify chromosomal fragments well conserved between humans and pigs and also to suggest new correspondences (Sscr1-Hsap3, Sscr9-Hsap9, Sscr13-Hsap11, Sscr15-Hsap6) confirmed by FISH on pig chromosomes. We examined in more detail the comparative map between Hsap12 and Sscr5 considering gene order, which suggests that rearrangements have occurred within the conserved synteny.
