| abstractText | Our previous mapping of allelic loss in gamma-ray induced thymic lymphomas in F(1) hybrid and backcross mice between BALB/c and MSM strains identified three regions with high frequencies of allelic loss which probably harbor a tumor suppressor gene. One region, Tlsr7, exists near the D16 Mit122 locus on chromosome 16. This study has further localized Tlsr7 by constructing a physical map and scanning a total of 587 thymic lymphomas. The map consists of 13 overlapping BAC clones and isolation of BAC-derived polymorphic probes leads to fine mapping of allelic losses. Eleven lymphomas show informative breakpoints of allelic loss regions relative to the flanking markers on the map. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of NotI digests of the clones shows that the commonly lost region is localized within an approximately 300 kb interval near D16Mit192. This map is invaluable to facilitate the identification of genes in the Tlsr7 region. Copyright 2001 Academic Press. |
