Description

A human-mouse monochromosomal hybrid that contains a human t(X;11) translocated chromosome carrying pter--q23 segment of chromosome 11 was used to construct a panel of radiation-reduced hybrids. The hypoxhanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) gene located close to the translocation breakpoint was used as a marker to select for the hybrids that preferentially retain the 11q22-23 region. Twenty-three HAT-resistant hybrids were isolated and screened by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the retention of 31 loci on 11q22-23 region. Among the 14 hybrids that had breakpoints within the 11q22-23 region, 6 hybrids contained fragments that extend either from centromere or telomere to the 5-Mb region spanned by GRIA4 and FDX, carrying various breakpoints within the region. This subpanel could be a potential resource to analyze the ataxia-telangiectasia disease locus and its neighboring region.
