Abstract excerpt
We have recently refined the localization of the myotubular myopathy (MTM1) gene to a 430-kb region between DXS304 and DXS1345 in proximal Xq28. We report two new polymorphic microsatellite markers, DXS8377 and DXS7423, that were physically mapped within the critical interval. A recombination event in a family segregating for MTM1 placed the disease gene telomeric to the trinucleotide polymorphism DXS8377....
