CHLC REPORT

Special Edition: V2.5 Maps: May, 1994

UPDATED INTEGRATED MAPS

Jeffrey C. Murray, M.D.
Principal Investigator

Summarized in this report is the latest update of maps developed by the CHLC (version 2.5). These maps represent extensions of the previously distributed V2.0 Integrated Genome-wide maps. Genetic map locations within these maps is available for a total of 521 markers developed through the CHLC. The CHLC markers are high heterozygosity tri-, tetra-, and penta-nucleotide simple tandem repeat polymorphisms.

In addition to maps presented here, a new generation of scaffold maps composed solely of uniquely ordered CHLC markers is available electronically. These maps, as well as more detailed information on the V2.5 framework maps and the primer sequences and PCR conditions necessary to characterize the STRPs developed through the CHLC are available through:

  ftp.chlc.org (anonymous ftp)
  gopher.chlc.org
  http://WWW.CHLC.org/

For information on how to obtain electronic access to the CHLC maps and resources, send e-mail to:

  info-server@chlc.org

Additional markers and maps will be available in late summer, 1994 which will include not only additional CHLCderived markers but also updated versions of markers provided through the CEPH database. As before, inquiries about these maps can be obtained by contacting any of the project investigators.
