Abstract excerpt

We have isolated a highly polymorphic sequence from the Down syndrome critical region on human chromosome 21. This is a particularly useful marker because it lies adjacent to the locus D21S55, which is most closely associated with the major defects on Down syndrome. Other than this marker, few ot...
