Summary: A further RFLP was identified by a phage clone obtained by screening a genomic library with the probe p105-153 (D5S39). Source/Description: Phage clone 153/06-13.2 was isolated after screening a genomic library made in EMBL-3 (Clontech Laboratories, Inc.) with the probe p105-153. Polymorphism: TaqI identifies a two allelic RFLP with polymorphic bands at 3.6 kb (D1) and 2.3 + 1.3 kb (D2) (Figure

1). Frequencies: Studies of 38 unrealted European Caucasians showed allele frequencies of 28 (37%) (A) and 48 (63*) (B). Not Polymorphic For: BamHI, Bcll, Bgll, Bglil, EcoRI, Haeil, HiticlI, HindI, HinfI, Pvull, RsaI, Sacd, Sau3A, Stul, XmnI using DNA from eight unrelated individuals. Chromosomal Localization: The probe p105 -153 has been previously localized to Sql -13 (1). Mendelian Inheritance: Codominant Mendelian inheritance was observed in three large families with a total of 33 children. Availability: The probe is available for collaboration from H.M.D.Gurling. Other Comments: To block repeated sequences the labeled probe was prehybridized with sonicated human placental DNA (2). Filters were washed at a final stringency of 0.5 x SSC/0. 1% SDS at 650C.

Source/Description: PCHPFKM1, a 2.86-kb cDNA clone, contains 76 bp of 5′-untranslated sequence, 2340 bp encoding human muscle PFK, and 399 bp of 3′- untranslated sequence plus a poly(A) tract (1). This clone was a generous donation from Dr Alan McLachlan (1). Polymorphism: KpnI identifies a two-allele polymorphism with fragments of 17 (allele 1) and 11 and 7.2 kb (allele 2) and a constant fragment of 14 kb. Frequency: Studied in 34 unrelated Caucasians. 17 kb allele (1): 0.69 11 and 7.2 kb allele (2): 0.31 Not Polymorphic For: AvaIH, BamHI, BanI, BglII, DraI, EcoRI, EcoRV, Hincd, Hindlll, MspI, NcoI, PstI, Scal, SstI and XmnI with DNA from a panel of 18 subjects. Chromosomal Location: The PFKM locus has been mapped to 1 cen-q32. Mendelian Inheritance: Co-dominant autosomal segregation was observed in a 2 generation family of 9 members and in 3 families of 4 members. Probe Availability: Available from Dr Alan McLachlan (1).
