摘要
Linkage analysis and homogeneity tests were carried out in 15 Dutch families segregating X-linked retinitis pigmentosa (XLRP). The study included segregation data for eight polymorphic DNA markers from the short arm of the human X chromosome. The results of both multipoint linkage analysis in individual families and heterogeneity analysis support the view that there are only two XLRP loci On the short arm of the human X chromosome, with one locus near the OTC gene and one in the vicinity of Dxs255. Furthermore, our data confirm the hypothesis that a tapetal reflex in female carriers can be observed more frequently, if not exclusively, in XLRP families of the RP3 type.
