Abstract:
:The mapping of genetic loci within organisms has been accelerated by the advent of Radiation Hybrid (RH) panels. These panels are available for humans and non-humans including mice, baboon, rat, and canine. This article contains a general protocol for the use of the Genebridge 4 whole genome RH panel to map a human locus. This protocol may also be adjusted to suit the other RH panels currently available.
