To identify DNA polymorphisms that are abundant in the human genome and are detectable by polymerase chain reaction amplification of genomic DNA, we tested the hypothesis that the polydeoxyadenylate tract of the Alu family of repetitive elements is polymorphic among human chromosomes. We analyzed the 3' ends of three specific Alu sequences and found that two (in the
adenosine deaminase
gene and the beta-globin
pseudogene
) were polymorphic. This novel class of polymorphisms, termed AluVpA [Alu variable poly(A)] may represent one of the most useful and informative group of DNA markers in the human genome.

The identity of a gene coamplified with the
adenylate deaminase
2 gene (AMPD2) in coformycin-resistant cells was determined by analysis of its genomic sequence. Sequence comparisons reveal a significant homology with the 3' terminal part of the gene encoding the alpha i3 subunit of Gi proteins from several species (GNAI3). Identification of the gene was confirmed by Western blot analysis of its products. A precise sequence comparison was performed with the human genomic sequence. It showed that conservation remains important in noncoding exons as well as in introns. However, sequences corresponding to combined U6 snRNA and E protein
pseudogene
, previously identified inside intron 7 of the human gene, were not found in the Chinese hamster gene. GNAI3 is mapped to a region of conserved linkage between human chromosome 1 (locus 1p13) and mouse chromosome 3 (at 48.4 cM). The Chinese hamster GNAI3 gene maps to chromosome 1 within a 120-kb fragment that also comprises the AMPD2 and GSTM genes.
