Abstract

D13S31 is the marker closest to the Wilson disease locus according to genetic analysis. Its physical localisation was refined by fluorescent in situ hybridisation to the junction to chromosomal bands 13q14.3 and 13q21.1. Using polymerase chain reaction analysis, D13S31 and D13S59 (the closest proximal and distal marker, respectively) were found to be located on the end of the der(13) consisting of 13pter-13q14.3: in the somatic cell hybrid ICD, and to be absent from the cell lines WC-H38B3B6 containing a del(13) (13pter-q13::13q21.1-qter) and KSF39 containing a del(13) (13pter-q14.1:).
