| abstractText | Caltractin belongs to a family of calcium-binding proteins and is a structural component of the centrosome. A human caltractin cDNA (CALT) has recently been mapped by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to Xq28. We report here refined mapping of the human CALT gene and its murine homolog between the loci DXS1104 (DXHXS1104) DXS52 (DXHXS52) by PCR and Southern analysis on YACs and somatic cell hybrids from the region in both species. These mapping studies place the gene within the critical region for the murine X-linked dominant, male lethal mutations bare batches and striated. |
