A simple technique for microdissection of specific region of human high resolution banded chromosome, followed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and microcloning was successfully used to microdissect 4 chromosomal pieces from the distal one third from band 11.2 to the terminal of the short arm of Y chromosome where the testis determining factor is located; 3.6 x 10(4) clones were obtained after 30 cycles of PCR. We analysed 41 clones with insert. The size of insert ranges from 140 to 350 bp (average 250 bp). A Southern blot analysis was done for one of them, and a 2.5 kb Hind III fragment was detected.
