Abstract excerpt
An insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM)-susceptibility gene (IDDM13) has recently been mapped to a region of distal chromosome 2q, which is syntenic to the region of mouse chromosome 1 containing a murine susceptibility gene for IDDM, Idd5. To determine the contribution of this region to IDDM disease susceptibility further and to narrow the region for positional cloning of susceptibility genes, we have...
