Abstract excerpt
Phenotypic data for 71 genetic markers for members of five Caucasian kindreds were tested for linkage with the autosomal dominant mutations causing Charcot-Marie-Tooth (hereditary motor sensory) neuropathy type I, characterized by markedly reduced nerve conduction velocities. Lod score analysis gave no evidence of linkage to the closely linked chromosome 1 loci SPTA1-FY-F5-AT3 and APOA2. In contrast, these...
