Establishment of an optimized set of 406 microsatellite markers covering the whole genome for the Japanese population.

Abstract excerpt

Microsatellites, an essential tool for genetic linkage analyses, are selected in genetic studies on the basis of both informativeness and their positions with respect to one another on the genetic map. In order to establish a microsatellite marker set useful for linkage studies in the Japanese population, we first genotyped 64 unrelated Japanese subjects, using 400 microsatellite markers from a commercially...
