The major diseases mapped to chromosome 16 are adult polycystic kidney disease and those resulting from mutations in the alpha globin complex. There are at least six other less important genetic diseases which map to this chromosome. The adenine phosphoribosyltransferase gene allows for selection of chromosome 16 in somatic cell hybrids and a hybrid panel is available which segments the chromosome into six regions to facilitate gene mapping. Genes which have been mapped to this chromosome or which have had their location redefined since HGM8 include APRT, TAT, MT, HBA, PKD1, CTRB, PGP, HAGH, HP, PKCB, and at least 19 cloned DNA sequences. There are RFLPs at 13 loci which have been regionally mapped and can be used for linkage studies.

A large conserved linkage group exists on mouse chromosome 8 and human chromosome 16q, including the loci for chymotrypsinogen B (Ctrb), haptoglobin (Hp), lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (Lcat), metallothionein-1,-2 (Mt-1,-2), tyrosine aminotransferase (Tat), and uvomorulin (Um). Using cloned gene probes, these six loci were mapped in M. m. domesticus X M. spretus interspecific crosses relative to a number of chromosome 8 anchor loci resulting in the gene order Es-1,Es-9-Mt-1,-2-Got-2-Es-2,Es-7,Lcat,Um-Hp,Tat,Ctrb-e. These results complement earlier studies and redefine the conserved segment on mouse chromosome 8, previously defined by the Hp-Tat interval, by the 24-cM interval between Mt-1,-2 and the conserved locus for adenine phosphoribosyltransferase, Aprt, mapped at 25 cM from Es-1 by T. B. Nesterova, P. M. Borodin, S. M. Zakian, and O. L. Serov (1987, Biochem. Genet. 25: 563-568). Within this segment, the gene order appears the same in man and mouse. While map distances between HP-TAT,HP-CTRB, and TAT-CTRB of respectively 7, 11, and 9 cM have previously been measured in man, no crossovers between Hp, Tat, and Ctrb were observed in over 100 meioses in the mouse.

The fragile site, FRA16B, at 16q22.100 and four different translocations with breakpoints at 16q22.102, 16q22.105, 16q22.108, and 16q22.3 were used to locate and order DNA probes. This was achieved by Southern analysis of a somatic cell hybrid panel containing portions of chromosome 16 and by in situ hybridization. The anonymous DNA fragments D16S6, D16S10, and D16S11 were proximal to FRA16B and located at 16q13----q22.100. D16S4 and LCAT were located at 16q22.100----q22.102. TAT and HP were located at 16q22.105----q22.108. CTRB was located distal to 16q22.105 and therefore is in the distal half of 16q22. The order of markers in this region was determined as centromere-D16S6, D16S11, D16S10, MT-FRA16B-D16S4, LCAT-HP,TAT,CTRB-APRT- telomere. Linkage studies to determine map distances between the closest markers flanking the fragile site are now in progress.

We present here the genetic mapping of the alpha-skeletal actin locus (Actsk-1) on mouse Chromosome (Chr) 8, on the basis of the PCR analysis of a microsatellite in an interspecific backcross. Linkage and genetic distances were established for four loci by analysis of 192 (or 222) meiotic events and indicated the following gene order: (centromere)-Es-1-11.7 cM-Tat-8.3 cM-Actsk-1-0.5 cM-Aprt. Mapping of ACTSK to human Chr 1 and of TAT and APRT to human Chr 16 demonstrates the existence of a new short region of homology between mouse Chr 8 and human Chr 1. Intermingling on this scale between human and mouse chromosomal homologies that occurred during evolution creates disorders in comparative linkage studies.
