Abstract
The determination of the physical map of human chromosome 11 will require more clones than are currently available. We have isolated an additional 1001 new markers in a bacteriophage vector from a somatic cell hybrid cell line that contains most of chromosome 11, except the middle of the short arm. These markers were localized to five different regions, 11p15-pter, 11p12-cen, 11q11-q14, 11q14-q23, and 11q23-qter, by a panel of previously characterized somatic cell hybrids. The region 11q11-14 harbors genes that have been shown to be important in breast cancer, B-cell lymphomas, centrocytic lymphomas, asthma, and multiple endocrine neoplasia, type 1 (MEN1). To determine the positions of the recombinant clones located there, we developed a new series of radiation-reduced somatic cell hybrids. These hybrids, together with those previously characterized, allowed us to map the 11q11-q14 markers into 11 separate segregation groups.
