X Abstract

In this study we examined homologies between 1,735 porcine microsatellites and human sequence. For 1,710 microsatellites we directly used the sequence flanking the repeat available in GenBank. For a set of 305 microsatellites, a BAC library was screened and end-sequencing provided 461 additional sequences. Altogether 2,171 porcine sequences were tentatively aligned with the sequence of the human genome using the fasta program. Human homologies were observed for 652 microsatellite loci and porcine chromosome assignments available for 623 microsatellites provide useful links in the human and pig comparative map. Moreover for 92 STS, a significant sequence similarity was detected using at least two sequences and in all cases corresponding human locations were consistent. The present study allowed the integration of anonymous markers and the porcine linkage map into the framework of the comparative data between human and porcine genomes (http://w3.toulouse.inra.fr/lgc/pig/msat/). Moreover all conserved syntenic segments were defined on human chromosomes.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
