[i] Four known genes from this region, ZFM1 (D26120),FAU1 (X65923), CAPN1 (X04366), and OVO(A. Chidambaram, R. Allikmets, S.C. Chandrasekharappa, S.C. Guru, W. Modi, B. Gerrard, and M. Dean, in prep.), were not included here as they have previously been excluded as candidates for MEN 1. (*) Two messages on Northern blot.

[ii] (+)Mutation analysis by dideoxy fingerprinting identified Mu as the MEN1 gene (Chandrasekharappa et al. 1997); (++) 22 exons excluded (+++) available 1.2 kb, excluded.

[iii] Presence of EST matches with the transcript in Unigene is indicated by ‘yes’ and absence by ‘no’ (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Schuler/UniGene/Chr11.html).

[iv] Presence of EST matches with the transcript on the Gene Map is indicated by ‘yes’ and absence by ‘no’ (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/SCIENCE96/ResTools.html).
