A first-generation global BAC framework map of the mouse genome


Using high-throughput IRS-PCR technology, we have newly generated and physically mapped 12136 novel mouse markers. Of these, 2224 fragments were generated from random mouse BAC clones from the CITB strain 129 library, originally constructed by B. Birren et al. (unpublished). For map display, microsatellite markers integrated from the Nusbaum et al. 1999 data set were used as reference points to calculate positions of BACs on the genetic map in centi-Morgan. Higher map resolution within bins (several BACs that map into an interval defined by a pair of microsatellite markers) can be deduced from our contig data. The mapping information generated by us can therefore be exploited to assemble a first global BAC framework map of the mouse genome as a resource for further studies.
