Abstract excerpt
The mutation involved in myotonic dystrophy (DM) has been mapped to the region between the ERCC1 DNA repair gene and the anonymous D19S51 locus on 19q13.3. Starting at locus D19S112 (probe pX75b), which served as a novel entry site for this chromosome region, we have established a cosmid contig of approximately 200 kb. In the contig, a gene expressed in the brain and a highly informative, 12-allele (TG)n variable...
