Linkage of a putative prostate cancer-susceptibility locus (HPC1) to chromosome 1q24-25 has recently been reported. Confirmation of this linkage in independent data sets is essential because of the complex nature of this disease. Here we report the results of a linkage analysis using 10 polymorphic markers spanning approximately 37 cM in the region of the putative HPC1 locus in 49 high-risk prostate cancer...
