    Abstract

    We have studied the segregation of an RFLP detected with a human ETS-1 genomic probe in 25 families containing members affected with ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) and in 27 families from the Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH) panel. We have recently mapped a gene for AT to 11q22-23 by linkage to the markers THY1 and D11S144. Multipoint linkage analysis of the CEPH families indicated that ETS-1 is located on chromosome 11q approximately 19.2 centimorgans telomeric to THY1. Analysis of the segregation of ETS-1 alleles in AT families yields strongly negative LOD scores, excluding an AT gene from a region extending 15 cM to either side of ETS-1. Multipoint mapping of ETS-1, D11S144, THY1, and AT also excludes the possibility that an AT gene is telomeric to ETS-1.
