Can I read Linkage analysis of X-linked cleft palate and ankyloglossia in Manitoba Mennonite and British Columbia Native kindreds on EtoBox?

Linkage analysis of X-linked cleft palate and ankyloglossia in Manitoba Mennonite and British Columbia Native kindreds by Sharon M. Gorski; Karen J. Adams; Patricia H. Birch; Bernard N. Chodirker; Cheryl R. Greenberg; Paul J. Goodfellow is a Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Linkage analysis of X-linked cleft palate and ankyloglossia in Manitoba Mennonite and British Columbia Native kindreds about?

A locus (CPX) responsible for X-linked cleft palate and ankyloglossia was previously mapped to the proximal long arm of the X chromosome through DNA marker linkage studies in two large kindreds: an Icelandic family and a British Columbia (B.C.) Native family. In this study, additional linkage analyses have been performed in the B.C. family and in a newly identified Manitoba Mennonite family with X-linked cleft palate and ankyloglossia. The Manitoba CPX locus maps to the same region as Icelandic and B.C. CPX. Two-point disease-tomarker linkage analyses in the Manitoba family indicate a maximum lod score (Zmax) between CPX and DXS349 (Zma x = 3.33 at 0 = 0.0). In multipoint linkage analysis, combined data from the B.C. and Manitoba families suggest that the most likely location for CPX is at DXS447 in Xq21.1 (multipoint Z = 13.5). The support interval for CPX at DXS447 extends approximately from PGK1 to DXYS 1 and includes a newly isolated polymorphic locus DXS 1109.
