The length of the line indicates the resolution of the assignment, i.e., the outer boundaries of the band(s) within which the BAC signal is located as described in Methods. Although higher resolution may be obtained from the archived images, within a single band region, BACs are ordered by the genetic and RH maps (Hudson et al. 1995). Divergence from colinearity is discussed in the text. STSs in black denote BACs yielding signals at single sites; those in red denote BACs with signals at more than one site on a single chromosome; those in purple denote BACs with signals at more than one site located on two or more chromosomes; those red and purple denote BACs with signals at more than one site on a single chromosome as well as on two or more chromosomes. Human genome anatomy: integrated molecular cytogenetic BAC–STS map of the human genome. Features including BAC addresses, map positions and STS sources of the 1021 BAC–STS pairs represented by the and 872 STSs and 957 BACs that were used to construct the map are found in the table that can be viewed at web sites described in the text. The table includes the BAC addresses and map positions as well as STS sources and oligonucleotide sequences. In the map above, each STS listed represents one or more BACs that map by FISH to the positions indicated by the vertical lines to the right of each chromosome ideogram.
