The sequence of chromosome 3 loci AHSG:TF:CHE1.

A large Hutterite kindred was examined for possible linkage between the chromosome 3 markers; cholinesterase (CHE1), transferrin (TF), and alpha-2HS glycoprotein (AHSG). Linkage between TF and AHSG was suggested in males (z = 1.515, theta = 0.08) and between CHE1 and TF(z = 0.661, theta = 0.21). However, linkage between CHE1 and AHSG in males was not established. Based on lods and a nuclear family informative for all three loci a possible chromosomal alignment for the loci is presented.
