The human chromosome 19 linkage group FUT1 (H), FUT2 (SE), LE, LU, PEPD, C3, APOC2, D19S7 and D19S9

Abstract

Families segregating for deficiency of the H alpha-2-L-fucosyltransferase, FUT1, have been investigated for linkage between FUT1 and other markers on chromosome 19. The results provide evidence for close linkage between FUT1 and FUT2 and for looser linkage between FUT1 and APOC2 and between FUT1 and D19S7. Pairwise linkage data are also reported between other markers investigated.
