Abstract
A transcription map of the Huntington disease gene region was generated by a direct cDNA selection strategy using genomic DNA from the 4p16.3 region surrounding the D4S95 and D4S127 loci. A total of 58 cDNA fragments were obtained from cDNAs derived from fetal brain, frontal cortex, liver and bone marrow following hybridization to overlapping YACs from this region. These cDNA clones were aligned into transcription units by hybridization to specific mRNAs, by sequence overlap and by physical mapping onto overlapping YAC clones. Nine separate transcription units spanning approximately one megabase were detected by RNA hybridization. They represent a minimum number of genes in this region and do not include those genes expressed specifically in tissues not used for the hybridization. The transcription map that is provided by the cDNA segments will lead to the generation of a detailed gene map of this region.Entities:
