We have recently published an analysis of deficiencies affecting recombination of LGV Left using array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (Jones et al., 2007). A beneficial outcome of this research is the creation of a deficiency map anchored precisely to the physical genome. With breakpoints positioned to within 4kb in most cases the deleted gene complement within each deficiency is known. Such a map can be used to reassess old mapping data and compile current mapping with the confidence that gene candidate lists are definitive. We have included a table of the regions containing the physical breakpoints in the in the deficiencies shown below.
Breakpoint regions for deficiencies on LGV Left.
