Four intragenic polymorphic microsatellite markers, AAAT Alu repeat, IVS27AC28.4, ACI27.2, and IVS38GT53.0, located along a 65 kb DNA region of the NF1 gene, were used to genotype 64 Spanish families with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Linkage disequilirium between each pair of markers was evaluated. Three of these markers, AAAT Alu repeat, ACI27.2, and IVS38GT53.0, exhibit linkage disequilibrium between each other. Analysis of extended haplotypes provides further evidence of the disequilibrium within this region since only 11 haplotypes account for 52% of the total chromosomes. Because of linkage disequilibrium, the informativeness of marker combinations for genotyping of NF1 families is diminished. There was no difference in the overall distribution of alleles between affected and normal chromosomes. An at risk haplotype was not found, as expected for a disease with at least 50% of cases being sporadic.
沿着神经纤维瘤病1型(NF1)基因的65 kb DNA区域定位的四个基因内多态性微卫星标记,即AAAT Alu重复序列、IVS27AC28.4、ACI27.2和IVS38GT53.0,用于对64个患有1型神经纤维瘤病的西班牙家庭进行基因分型。评估了每对标记之间的连锁不平衡。其中三个标记,即AAAT Alu重复序列、ACI27.2和IVS38GT53.0,彼此之间表现出连锁不平衡。扩展单倍型分析提供了该区域内不平衡的进一步证据,因为仅11种单倍型就占了总染色体的52%。由于连锁不平衡,用于NF1家庭基因分型的标记组合的信息量减少。在患病染色体和正常染色体之间,等位基因的总体分布没有差异。正如预期的那样,对于至少50%的病例为散发性的疾病,未发现风险单倍型。
