Abstract
Margarita Island ectodermal dysplasia (ED4) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by unusual facies, dental anomalies, hypotrichosis, palmoplantar hyperkeratosis and onychodysplasia, syndactyly, and cleft lip/cleft palate. We have used an affected-only DNA-pooling strategy to carry out linkage disequilibrium mapping of the ED4 gene to 11q23. Haplotype analysis of four complex Margarita Island ED4 families localized the ED4 gene to an approximately 1-2-Mb interval spanned by just two YACs.Entities:
