Abstract
We have produced physical maps of the proximal part of Xq22, containing the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) and alpha-galactosidase A (GLA) gene loci, using long range physical mapping techniques and yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs). These maps reveal five previously unidentified CpG islands which could indicate the presence of other genes in this region.
