Abstract excerpt
Using multipoint linkage analysis in 20 families segregating for X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP), the lod scores on a map of eight RFLP loci were obtained. Our results indicate that under the hypothesis of homogeneity the maximal multipoint lod score supports one disease locus located slightly distal to OTC at Xp21.1. Heterogeneity testing for two XLRP loci suggested that a second XLRP locus may be located...
