Fine genetic mapping of LCN1/D9S1826 within 9q34

LCN1 gene encodes the tear lipocalin; the lipocalins are a large and growing family of proteins characterized by their ability to bind small hydrophobic molecules. We report here the location of a dinucleotide repeat microsatellite marker (D9S1826) close to LCN1 gene. Using the CEPH reference families, the position of LCN1 is located within the 9q34 genetic map between D9S23 and D9S158.
