| abstractText | We report here on the chromosomal mapping of the adrenoleukodystrophy-related (ALDR) gene on both the human and the mouse genomes. This gene encodes a peroxisomal ATP binding cassette transporter, closely related to the transporter identified as responsible for the adrenoleukodystrophy phenotype. ALDR maps on the syntenic region on murine and human autosomes. In addition, we could determine its position in relation to known microsatellite framework markers; this will allow to test its role in Zellweger syndrome and/ or related peroxisomal disorders. |
