Ordering of polymorphic markers in the chromosome region 3p21.

Starting from five markers, with a well-defined order from distal to proximal 3p21 nine other markers could be inserted in this 3p21 map. Five were precisely mapped genetically. The other markers were ordered by FISH and/or deletion hybrid mapping. The overall 3p21 order from distal to proximal is as follows: D3S1298-D3S1260-(D3S966, D3S1448 (= D3S1449))-D3S1029-D3S32-D3S643-D3F15S2-D3S2968-D3S1235-D3S1289-D3S1447-D3S1295.
