Abstract

Chromosome band 10q24 is rich in genes involved in development, tumorigenesis, neurological disorders, hormone metabolism, and environmentally induced disease susceptibility. We have constructed an STS-based integrated physical and genetic map of 10q24 derived from the CEPH–Généthon mega-YAC contig data for this region. This map consists of 42 fluorescencein situhybridization-mapped overlapping CEPH mega-YACs spanning approximately 15 Mb to which 49 STS markers have been assigned, including 24 Généthon CA repeat genetic markers, 10 known gene loci from the 10q24 region (IFI56, IDE, PDE6C, RBP4, CYP2C, CD39, DNTT, GOT1, WNT8B,andPAX2) and 11 additional expressed sequences of unknown function.

      It overlaps the larger genomic region, spanning 12 cM at 10q23.3–q24.2, recently linked to a form of autosomal dominant spastic paraplegia (SPG9; Seri et al., 1999). To identify candidate genes for these diseases, we constructed a YAC map of the 10q24 region (Gray et al., 1997; Siebert et al., unpublished) and placed on it numerous brain expressed sequence tags (ESTs; Nobile et al., 1998; Lo Nigro et al., 2000). Subsequent expression analysis of these ESTs led to the identification of several putative genes selectively or predominantly expressed in the brain (Nobile and Pitzalis, 1999), which may be involved in neurological disorders.
